About Freycinet Pinot Noir 2021 750ml
Freycinet Pinot Noir 2021 from Tasmania's Freycinet Peninsula is a beautifully composed cool-climate expression. On the nose, it opens with fragrant red cherry and wild strawberry interlaced with dried rose petals and a whisper of forest floor earthiness. The palate is silky and precise, delivering layers of pomegranate, raspberry coulis, and blood orange with a fine thread of spice and subtle cedary oak. The tannins are gossamer-fine, characteristic of Freycinet's meticulous viticulture, and the wine carries a bright, mineral-driven acidity that gives it wonderful tension and elegance. A wine of genuine complexity and restraint.
