2013 Scorpo Estate Pinot Noir, Mornington Peninsula

Ruby red, with a dynamic bouquet embracing the sweet earthiness of clove, kola nut and mushroom along with a strawberry-rhubarb fruitiness. A lush and deep expression of pinot noir, this beguiling wine possesses a lengthy, powerful finish with firm graphite tannin.

96 pts – Australian Wine Companion 2016

A standout release. Generosity of perfume and fruit is exemplary, though there is certainly no lack of acid or tannin structure. Foresty dark cherries, plum, spices, meaty oak, perhaps even fennel. The overall effect is thoroughly gorgeous.
