2022 Windansea Pinot Noir, Newton Johnson, Hemel-en-Aarde
£42.00
“The clays are a little shallower in the Windansea block, so the tannins are often firmer and thicker than on Seadragon. A hint of meaty reduction leads you into a palate that’s savoury, complex and built to last, all plum, redcurrant and pomegranate flavours, with a sheen of 22% new wood and undertones of Asian spices.”
