Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Pinot Noir displays a true reflection of fruit from the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. Layers of subtle notes of red cherries and raspberries with combined hints of cloves and baking spices.
Professional Ratings
92 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Softly herbal with fresh cherry blossoms and potpourri essence, the 2022 Pinot Noir offers a dusty yet floral lift. A kiss of brown baking spices floats out of the glass. Medium-bodied and with 13% alcohol, the wine possesses energetic acidity that beams in the mouth, showcasing a delightful and balanced tannic structure before ending with a food-friendly finish. This will be amazing with spiced salmon fillets and duck breast.
91 James Suckling
Inviting, spicy nose of grilled mushrooms, charred herbs, cherries and warm spices. It’s flavorful and mellow, medium-bodied, with creamy tannins and a deliciously spicy finish.
90 Wine Spectator
An elegant red, with a delicate, herbal overtone, boasting ripe and juicy black cherry and black raspberry fruit. Gains depth from an underpinning of smoke, zesty ground white pepper and anise, while creamy tannins lend definition to the finish.
