Dalrymple Pinot Noir 2013

A brilliant purple-red colour that shines in the glass. Aromas of violets, crushed boysenberry and blackberry with hints of roasted cinnamon, clove and green pepper. A balanced mid palate leads to a fine tannin finish with spices and length supported by French oak.

I’m a glass half full. I have a spring in my step and am immediately approachable. I’m a loveable, reliable friend, sweet and sensitive. I’m balanced and in touch with my emotions, structured, smooth, serene. I’m fun too, always up for a party, charming, disarming and dependable. I’m yours if you want me, but am just as happy taking it slow.

Although fresh and appealing in its youth, the 2013 will reward cool cellaring for 8-12 years for those looking to enjoy the full complexity of fine Pinot Noir over time.

Try pairing with Peking duck pancakes, or for something different, warm apple pie.
