2021 Tolpuddle Vineyard, Coal River Valley Pinot Noir
£58.00
“A longer, cooler vintage has allowed the sum of all the distinctive site components to marry in ideal balance. It’s all there – pretty aromatics; plush, rounded fruit flavours with some stalky grip adding play to the texture, and a cloak of minerality providing an intriguing counterpoint as fine tannins grip at the finish. It’s alluring, enticing you back to keep reading its complexity.”
98 Points, David Sly, Decanter
“Riffing off the same playbook as the excellent 2020 Pinot Noir, this 2021 Pinot Noir is fine, floral, mineral, structured and if possible, a little more structured and perfect than the 2020. It captures a ductile flow of tannin that shapes the fruit, capturing a glistening display of perfectly ripe, restrained fruit. Together, it makes for a polished, scintillating wine. Exceptional.”
