Producer: Hilt Vanguard
Vintage: 2012
Grape: Pinot Noir
Type: Red Wine
Size: 75cl
Notes:
A pinot that exists more in the dark spectrum with blackberry, black cherry and cinnamon notes. Baking spices and black licorice. Very young at this stage. On the palate it is rich, dense and delicately resinous. With more time and air, the palate expands further and reveals subtle notes of toasty oak. Considering how tightly wound it remains, it is remarkably powerful both in structure and texture. A wine to decant now or leave to evolve in the cellar. Muscular and densely packed with fruit. A wine with incredible youthful exuberance and a very bright future.
