Description

The Pinot Noir vines in Black Estate's Home vineyard were planted back in 1994, and have been farmed organically and biodynamically since 2010 - finally becoming certified in 2017.

The resulting wine is one that is effortlessly enticing - it's bright and vibrant, with extreme drinkability and seductive elegance.

Nicholas Brown, a winemaker at Black Estate, has a minimalist approach to his wines and this one truly shows that sometimes, less is more. It's a beautiful drop from a very beautiful part of the world.

Review

This has an attractively savoury nose of wild blueberries, peppercorns, earth, and thyme. Medium-bodied with tight-grained tannins and tangy acidity. I like the smoky, ashy energy here. Very persistent. From organically grown grapes. Unfined and unfiltered. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Tasting Profile

Nose
Deep ruby hue. Smells like dark plum, violets, black olive, woody herbs, cinnamon, and earth.
Palate
The palate is dense, typical of Pinot Noirs from the Home vineyard clays, with emerging silky fruit flavours and a persistent mineral finish.
