2016 Main Ridge Estate The Acre Pinot Noir

Huon Hooke

Medium to deep red colour with a purple tint. The bouquet is shy and reserved, with a smoky char oak note and a hint of chaff, while the palate is full-bodied and rich, with neatly infused oak flavour and some tannin grip. There's abundant ripe cherry flavour, too. Very good wine, the best I have ever tasted under The Acre label.
