Dog Point 2022 Pinot Noir 750ml

Richly fruited yet finely structured. The nose is intense and brooding, with dark cherry, chocolate, star anise, clove, oak spice and dried rose petals. The palate is smooth and ripe, with supple tannins and generous fruit – crushed dark plum, cherry, liquorice root and earth – lifted by fresh acidity. Very youthful, but with all the right components – it just needs some time to settle.
