Prophet’s Rock Home Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017, Bendigo, Central Otago
Really lovely bouquet with layers of fruit and oak, a nervous youthful texture with firm tannins and acidity to match. The fruit ripeness punches through the new oak layers and texture-laden tannins with a fleshy, generous and red berry surge. Complexity builds as the wine opens up in glass, layers of fruit and spice begin to emerge after a few minutes. A wine still relaxing and developing. Drinkable now, but best from 2021 through 2028.
