Valli Gibbston Pinot Noir 2021

“Deep garnet hue with captivating aromas of dried herbs, tapenade, kanuka, and wet pebbles that leap out of the glass and are complemented by fig, morello cherry, and strawberry brûlée. The palate commences savoury with delicious dried herb and Jerusalem artichoke flowing into wild strawberry with a long, spicy finish. The wine has a silky texture with fine tannins and exquisite detail. This vintage has delivered a complexly layered Gibbston Pinot Noir that is bold yet graceful with so much intrigue creating an aura of suspense. A delight to the senses at release, this wine will continue  to captivate for 15+/- years.”  Jen Parr - August 2023
