Erin Larkin - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2022 Burn Cottage Vineyard Pinot Noir is light and fine, with a delicate array of cherry, strawberry, red apple and freshly pressed linen notes. Woven throughout is sweet tobacco, graphite, white tea and finely ground pink peppercorns. In the mouth, the acidity works with the tannins to penetrate the palate with flavour, and it has an ethereal quality to it, which marks it as distinctly different from the Sauvage Pinot Noir. This is an eminently pretty Pinot Noir and comes highly recommended.

Perfumed and fragrant aromas of dark cherries, blackberry bushes, spices, wet bark and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with firmly integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes
of red currants, wild raspberries, citrus peel and lead pencil. Refined and pure with an underlying power and tension”

A stunning red, offering an aromatic and expressive mix of blueberry, raspberry and maraschino cherry, along with notes of dried rose petal, sandalwood and toasted cumin seed, plus a touch of fresh mint. Plush and velvety, with details of black walnut liqueur, white pepper and palo santo that linger on the long, expressive finish. Drink now through 2039.
"The Burn Cottage Vineyard is why we came about as a winery — it's a unique spot tucked beneath the Pisa Range. The 2022 bursts with dark cherry, violets, and seductive aromatics. On the palate: supple, fine tannins weave dark berries, citrus, chocolate and savoury notes into a vibrant, crunchy raspberry-cranberry finish. We see this having great cellaring potential.
