Hamilton Russell Pinot Noir 2021

This beautiful Pinot noir is not overtly fruity, soft and sweet and it generally shows hints of that alluring savoury primal character along with a dark, spicy, complex primary fruit perfume. 13.4% ABV.

The low-vigour, stony, clay-rich soil, cool maritime mesoclimate, naturally tiny yields of well under 35 hl/ha and their philosophy of expressing the terroir in their wines – give rise to a certain tightness, tannin line and elevated length to balance the richness and generosity of this Pinot noir.
