Quartz Reef Bendigo Estate Single Ferment Pinot Noir 2019, Central Otago

Quartz Reef Bendigo Estate Single Ferment Pinot Noir.png

Wonderful purity, complexity and vibrato in the bouquet with aromas of sweet ripe black cherry and Otago raspberries, a core of minerality with floral highlights, some new wood scents offering smoke and spice. Youthful, tense and poised on the palate with a core of pinosity, dark red berry fruit flavours, firm chalky tannins and plenty of acidity. Flavour mirror the bouquet leading to a lengthy, tense and complex finish. A wine for the cellar still with best drinking from late 2022 through 2030+.

21 days on skins with 20% new, 40% 1 year old, 20% 2 years old and 20% 3 years old - French oak program.
