2020 Mount Mary Pinot Noir

Other Reviews....
Intense optical scanning of every berry by sorting tables and Oscillys; matured in French oak (25% new) for 16 months. Radiant clear crimson. All the red berries of forest and field fill the bouquet and the strikingly fresh palate, which proceeds to expand on the finish with the proverbial peacock's tail on display. Drink by 2035.

Plenty of sweet strawberries with sandalwood and dried flower aromas that follow through to a medium body with fine, rounded tannins and a juicy finish. Orange peel and cedar at the end. Delicious now but will age nicely.

Wines are sold out at winery, and really, there’s no good reason to send samples, but Sam Middleton is a good fellow, so we get to review them for an adoring public.
Strawberry, kind of autumnal and savoury, fine spicy oak, a little sarsaparilla richness and dried rose. It’s bright and fine-boned, gossamer tannin, fresh red fruits, gently toasty cinnamon oak adds a layer of mouth-perfume and something of an exotic character here too, freshness and excellent length, with a subtle powdery grip. Graceful and delicate. And a distinct ‘mineral’ feel this year, or so I think. It’s a beautiful wine. More to come. Drink 2024 - 2036+

Classical, concentrated, seamless and silky. These are words I would use to describe the Mount Mary Vineyard Pinot Noir style, and the latter I would attribute to the masterful crafting of tannin that the Middletons have perfected in their vineyards. This 2020 Pinot Noir is supple and red-fruited, with a poise and clarity that goes long in the mouth. Right now, the fruit remains subdued and restrained as it glides across the tongue through the finish. The length of flavor explains, patiently, that the wine has far to go before it sleeps and that it has many layers to unfurl in that time. Patience, young one. Drink 2022 - 2037.
