The 2023 Dexter Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir showcases the impact of a challenging vintage with low yields and small bunches, resulting in intensely concentrated fruit flavours. Expect rich dark cherry, blueberry, and blackberry notes complemented by subtle savoury herbal nuances. Fine-grained tannins and a well-defined structure balance the fruits natural sweetness, delivering impressive length and support that reflect the vintages character. This wine offers a refined expression of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir, ideal for those seeking depth and elegance. \”Theres a fruit party going on here with loads of wild strawberries, red cherries and cranberries, spicy, too with snips of fresh basil and menthol plus heady florals mainly roses. The palate is mid-weighted, and a fruit succulence comes through so, too, layers of tannins with the sweet oak adding a hint of bitter green walnut on the finish. In its youth, theres a prettiness as complexity will come with age.\”95 Points – Jane Faulkner, Halliday\’s Wine Companion, 7th August 2024
