The 2021 Block 3 Pinot Noir is aromatic and detailed, offering a mouthful of perfumed fruit. This is spicy, bright, seductive, light and utterly gorgeous. The tannins have a delicacy and focus to them and are supported by a flow of fresh red fruit across the palate, alongside a cooling, mineral finish. It's a superb wine. This is my favorite wine in the 2021 lineup, a company of poised, precise, directional wines. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
"[2021 is] a very fine and very focused year; we see it in line with the 2015s and the 2012s," said Winemaker Blair Walters.
