Shaw + Smith Pinot Noir 2024 375ml

Description

Product Description: This 375ml half bottle of Shaw + Smith Pinot Noir 2024 offers a refined expression of cool climate Australian Pinot Noir. It captures the clarity and tension of the Adelaide Hills through precise vineyard work and restrained winemaking. Sourced primarily from the Lenswood and Balhannah vineyards, it reflects the region’s elevated slopes and long, temperate growing season. The result is a wine with lifted fragrance, purity of fruit and supple structure, continuing the benchmark style the estate has upheld since 2007. The 2024 vintage delivers fine boned tannins, vibrant red fruit and a long, balanced finish. Hand picked fruit, small batch fermentations and gentle French oak maturation provide definition without excess. This 375ml format is ideal for gifting, dining for two or exploring the vintage in a more accessible size. Bright, aromatic and quietly powerful, it suits short to mid term cellaring and pairs beautifully with dishes such as duck, mushroom risotto or aged cheeses. Tasting Notes NOSE– Fragrant & PreciseRed cherry, raspberry, and floral lift with subtle spice and forest floor complexity. PALATE– Silky & LayeredBright red fruits and fine tannins glide through a frame of tension and savoury detail. FINISH– Long & ElegantLingering redcurrant, spice, and mineral freshness, with poised balance and length. Reviews & AccoladesMedium red-purple colour, bright and youthful. Sweet raspberry, red cherry and floral aromatics, good intensity and a solid backing of firm but measured tannins supplying backbone and adding to length. A pretty serious Pinot Noir, with impact and persistence, that would reward a little extra time in bottle.” – Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 94 Points Ranked #3 of 21 Adelaide Hills Pinot Noirs (2024 Vintage) – The Real Review Finer Details:Style – Red WineVarietal – Pinot NoirCountry – AustraliaRegion – Adelaide Hills, South AustraliaVintage – 2024Bottle Size – 375mlABV – 13.5%Closure – Screw Cap
