Giant Steps Pinot Noir Wombat Creek Vineyard 2019

Yarra Valley, Australia
8.0
WineSaint
Tightly wound and precise, with sour cherry and redcurrant fruit stretched taut across a frame of fine-grained tannins. Blood orange acidity cuts through the mid-palate, while rose petal and raspberry notes add lift. Shows remarkable clarity and tension for a Yarra Valley Pinot. The kind of restraint that recalls good Burgundy. Everything here is about precision rather than power.
