The 2022 Cornish Point Pinot Noir is incredibly fragrant, with dried lavender and sandalwood, cherry, raspberry pip and cocoa. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied and supple, with layers of tannin and spice. Through the finish, the wine tightens up and flows across the palate for a precise, spooling close. Exciting wine, I like the undulation of texture in the mouth. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 Pinot Noir Cornish Point is an elegant, stylish wine with precision and poise. It tickles the nose with its fragrance, almost dancing up your nostrils, bringing woody green herbs to your olfactory. Christmas spices and fruit cake aromas appear alongside fresh cherries and plums. It is shy of medium-bodied and isn't showy, offering a more delicate, light-on-its-feet style than other Pinot Noirs from the Felton Road stable. The wine ends with a gentle lift, reminiscent of a conductor lifting his baton and instructing the orchestra to end the quiet final note. The finish is fragrant and pure fruited.
