Rippon Emma Block Mature Vine Pinot Noir 2017

A pure, seductive and unadulterated expression of Pinot, offering a mix of herbs including rosemary and thyme alongside red cherry fruit. A finely crafted wine that expands gently in the mouth but retains a transparency and sense of lightness on its feet. Complete and satisfying, with a lick of integrated cedar oak on the finish, where gentle, fine tannins provide tender grip. Excellent balance and a sense of calm and charm. A little more length wouldn't be unwelcome, just to take it into the realms of near-perfect.
