"Affordable pinot noir is rarely so scrumptious. Within the bounds of responsible serving and consumption of alcohol, this is a wine you just want to drink by the bucket load. It's immensely aromatic, complex, meaty and strewn with leaves, though its cherried/cranberried sweet-sour fruit is the motor to its moreishness. In short, it's fabulous drinking at a fraction of what you'd expect to pay for such pleasure." Reviewed March 2015

"This could get my vote as the year's most drinkable wine. Bonus points as a result. Not for cellaring; for drinking now. I'm buying some even though I don't need it/have too much wine already. It just has such a perfect mix of sweet, sour, savoury and perfumed. It’s cherried and raspberried, a touch cranberried, has some twigs, smallgoods and spice but is essentially sweet, jellied, Turkish delight-ish. I tasted it yesterday and loved it so much I wondered whether I was just in a good mood; which seemed counter-intuitive at the time, because I didn't feel like I was. So I popped the lid back on and came back a day later; there it is again, pretty as a picture. It's a case buy. For whenever you feel in need of some cheer."

Product Description:

Lush dark berry fruit with striking floral edges combine on the nose of the 2014 Dagger Pinot Noir to create a fresh yet complex attack on the senses. Lifted rich fruit and spice parry along the palate to a finish of fine-grained tannin and bright acidity.

The Dagger has been honed to create a vibrant, rich, earlier drinking wine displaying all of the hallmark aromas flavours and texture of Pinot Noir.

Drink young while the edge is keen. - Winemaker's Notes
