Experience the Excellence of Grasshopper Rock Pinot Noir 2022
A classic Grasshopper Rock Pinot Noir with fine silky tannins and elegance along with layers of complexity on a strong backbone. Dark purple with garnet hues. Perfumed with violets, blackberries, strawberry, hints of spice, chocolate and dried herb. A full silky entry with dark plum, dark cherry, florals and forest floor notes. Concentrated and complex with good minerality, ample fine grained tannins and a persistent finish. Firm acid backbone which melds well with the dark fruit profile.
'In the glass, the fruit is supple and bright...'

The 2022 Earnscleugh Vineyard Pinot Noir hails from a warmer than average year. During flowering in December, cloudier and wetter than normal weather caused temperatures to drop, and there was reduced flower germination. Bunches were more open with fewer berries. In the glass, the fruit is supple and bright, with layers of red berries, underpinned by a cherry freshness. I can easily see why these wines will all be consumed in their youth, such is the freshness and detail in the fruit; however, I would strongly recommend that you attempt to exercise some patience with these bottles, as they evolve with wonderful freshness and detail over time. 13.3% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
This is a beautiful wine now, but it will be an even better wine in the years to come.

I really like the singularity of this estate. Just one Pinot. And it ages beautifully, so nicely in fact that I often regret opening them this early in their lives, because their position now seems almost irrelevant to the wines that they will become. So, this 2022 Earnscleugh Vineyard Pinot Noir (said ern-sklew) leads with cocoa powder and roasted game nuances, pink peppercorns, red apple skins and dried herbs. In the mouth, the tannins are finely milled, structuring and chewy, with strands of saline acidity woven into the picture. This is a beautiful wine now, but it will be an even better wine in the years to come.
'Fragrant pinot noir with floral/rose petal and berry flavours...'
94 Points
Fragrant pinot noir with floral/rose petal and berry flavours that contrasts with a structure of fine, sappy tannins. Although the wine is relatively light-bodied the tannic backbone suggests that it has good cellaring potential.
'Supple and harmonious...'
94 Points
From a single vineyard in Alexandra, one of the world’s most southerly, planted in 2003. Enticing nose, layered and interesting, perfumed with red liquorice, spice, dried herbs and earth. The palate is elegant and firm with fine, silty tannins and a nice herbal (not green) savouriness to offset the core of juicy rich fruit – a hallmark of the sub-region. Supple and harmonious, with a real sense of lightness and grace.
