2019 BK Wines Remy Pinot Noir, Lenswood

A wine set to divide. Remy is quite idiosyncratic, in that it openly embraces and celebrates the practice of adding stems early in the winemaking process. That much is clear from the aromas and flavours. Are they a distraction from the fruit? Yes. Which is not to suggest that the fruit is completely in the shade, it's not. Still, it would be good to enjoy a little more of it.

100% Lenswood Pinot Noir, wild yeasts, nine months in 100% new French oak, 12 months in bottle, only one barrel produced.

If you’ve ever watched a tango you’ll know that it doesn’t just take two… it takes careful coordination to turn potential chaos into a seamlessly spectacular duo. Like a beautifully choreographed dance, 

The gapless aromatic profile displays tobacco-leaf sweetness and fermenting Burgundian-forest oak leaves with deeper layers of stewed rhubarb and cherry pie. The characters on the palate are remarkably similar to the nose and rounded out with cornflour-smooth tannins. A true harmony of elements.
