Rapaura Springs RESERVE Pinot Noir 2024

Dark plum, black cherry and black olive tapenade with complexing mushroom and fresh sage combined with vanilla pod oak. The palate is rich in dark fruits, fresh strawberries and cassis. The tannins are poised and silky and finishes with notes of dried herbs and cedar.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Red berry fruit aromas and flavours, dark raspberry then plum, black cherry skin then boysenberry. On the palate there’s a mix of ripe and tart fruits delivering a distinctive mouthfeel and salivating freshness. Fruit tannins and acidity frame the core fruit flavours well, there’s persistency and freshness. Some leesy baking spice ideas, a low oak intervention means this is a wine to enjoy from day of purchase through 2028+."

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Pristine with elegant complexity, the wine shows sweet plum, violet, clove, and roasted nut aromas on the nose. The palate is silky-smooth, delivering juicy fruit intensity with fleshy texture and fine-grained tannins, finishing soothing and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2030."
