About Scotchmans Hill Pinot Noir 375ML 2024
Scotchmans Hill Pinot Noir from the Bellarine Peninsula displays a luminous ruby hue with garnet edges. On the nose, fragrant red cherry and fresh strawberry are lifted by a delicate violet florality, underpinned by subtle forest floor earthiness and a whisper of dried herbs. The palate is silky and refined, with bright cranberry and red plum fruit leading the way, supported by fine-grained tannins and a lively natural acidity that gives the wine real energy and definition. Gentle spice and a touch of toasty oak add complexity without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is clean, persistent, and elegantly savoury.
