There's an abundance of tannins, but they are as resolved as tannins get, lightly coating the palate. The fruit was picked a little earlier than usual due to the warmth of the season in a bid to preserve tension and also keep the alcohol level at a very reasonable 13%.

There is a light charred oak note present, easily confused with toasted almonds. Flowery scents like cherry blossom, violets and Christmas lilies are combined with plums, boysenberry and liquorice. Immediately the nose reveals this to be a serious wine: very coherent with rapidly expanding boundaries bringing aromatic volume. The palate, too, has an escalating horizon and an inflating edge; it's simply delicious, with well-rounded tannins. Initially there is a juicy, plush elegance, with the tannins claiming a more authoritative and luxurious presence, showing off its class and flamboyance. The mid-palate brings the wine back to earth with grounding acidity that reigns the wine in again without overpowering the fruit weight. It is just enough to bring life again to the floral and lighter fruit aromatics, to highlight the central core and to show the length and smooth finish on the back palate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e97 points Rebecca Gibb MW vinous.com Mar 2021 Drink 2021 - 2030\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSmoky, savoury, lots of pure red berry fruits aromas, clove and baking spices, roses and silty soil scents; complex.

Soil work was completed on time with pruning finishing early and bud burst coming a week early. No water was used during frost protection, just the wind machine when needed. An exceptionally warm growing season with very rapid growth and little wind. Cyclone Gita in February brought significant rainfall and some botrytis pressure with grapes riper than usual for that time of year. Spraying under nets was necessary and fruit thinning continued up to harvest to remove any disease. We started with picking the sparkling base wine on March 16th with selections from Roadblock Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and Limeworks 2009 Chardonnay. Moving to Chardonnay on March 21st to 31st - Limeworks 2009, Shelf, and Limeworks 1999. The Pinot Noirs came in from March 27th to April 5th – Roadblock, Shelf West, Shelf 1998, Quarry Rootlings, Slope, Shelf Top, Shelf Bottom and finally, the Quarry 10\/5. Our new winery set-up had its inaugural harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur winemaking philosophy is simple, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir blocks are multi-cloned and harvested, fermented, pressed, put to barrel separately as individual blocks. This allows us to follow the evolution of the parcels for a year before making blending decisions and gives opportunities to evaluate single parcel potential. When we have good volume, we can split blocks in half for winemaking trials. The yeasts are natural, coming from the vineyard, with small natural starters from each parcel after the fruit has been processed into its fermenting vat (PN) or pressed into tank (CH). Malolactic fermentation is 100%, also natural. No fining or clarification agents are used, and filtration is minimal – coarse filtering for Chardonnay, the same for Pinot Noir from the racking valve down, or not at all. For Chardonnay, the first addition of sulphur is at 12 months when the wine comes out of barrel into tank. Pinot Noir sees an addition of sulphur at processing to protect the fruit during its cold maceration time and acid adjustments in the fermenter to stabilise pH for long term stability, colour, and ageing. The wine is then left alone and sulphured in tank after barrel ageing for 12 months. Small sulphur adjustments are made, if necessary, just before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MW Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46549591458094,"sku":"SK34467862","price":399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/BellHillPinotNoir750ml.png?v=1692500900"},{"product_id":"2020-prophet-s-rock-cuvee-aux-antipodes-pinot-noir-750ml","title":"2020 Prophet's Rock Cuvee Aux Antipodes Pinot Noir 750ml","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"352\" data-end=\"835\"\u003eFounded in Central Otago, New Zealand, Prophet’s Rock is celebrated for crafting wines of purity, texture, and site expression.

There were some frosts throughout the spring but nothing severe that couldn't be fought and no damage was sustained. Excellent weather during flowering and with a little green harvest in some blocks, resulted in perfect crop loads and a very even bunch maturity. January was cool and wet but then February and March balanced this with warm and very dry weather. The vines were in very healthy condition with harvest commencing on March 30 and concluding on April 23. There was nothing extraordinary about the growing season and it can be regarded as a very fine year. Low sugar levels at harvest (important to keep alcohols from climbing too high) and stable acidities were a very pleasing aspect of the 2010 vintage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eImmediately quite masculine on the nose: herbs, earth and brooding dark spices rather than a flower basket.
