The gorgeous 2022 Melville Estate Pinot Noir comes from 26-year-old vines that carry seventeen different clones. Fermented with 40% whole cluster fruit and aged in neutral French oak barrels for 11 months, it boasts scrumptious notes of red and dark cherries, Chinese 5 spice, dried mint, and sage. A supple mouthfeel with a silky smooth texture moves to a finish that goes on and on.
