Cloudsley Twenty Mile Bench Pinot Noir 2021

Description

Earthy and savoury in nature, this single-vineyard Pinot from Cloudsley opens with hints of purple iris, ripe raspberries and fresh rosemary. The palate is layered with wild blueberries and red currants, framed by fine tannins that offer structure and poise based in minerality. There’s a lovely energy to this wine – concentrated yet lifted, with remarkable clarity. A persistent finish underscores its elegance and finesse, capturing the distinct character of the Hanck Vineyard in the 2021 vintage. Drinking window: 2025-2031. Score – 94.
