A beautiful bright ruby from Talley's estate vineyards, this Pinot Noir is a delicious melange of ripe red berries and savoury dried herbs.—aomas of smoky rose petals and gravelly dust compliment a dried strawberry leather character. The palate shows bright red berry flavours, spicy and savoury elements of chicory root and mouthfuls of flowery lavender character.

A solid step up, the 2022 Pinot Noir Estate is more spicy and complex, with savory redcurrant and cherry fruit as well as lots of spice, dried herbs, and underbrush nuances. It's balanced, medium-bodied, has fine tannins, and a beautiful finish.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Estate is a fine introduction to the Pinots in this range. Crushed flowers, kirsch, sweet red cherry, cedar, pipe tobacco and sweet spice all grace this mid-weight, ethereal Pinot. Silky tannins wrap it all together effortlessly.
