Cobaw Ridge 2022 High Density Pinot Noir

This is the first release from this pocket of Cobaw Ridge's higher density plantings, as the name states.
Sees 25 % new oak. A strange mix of brooding, black fruited feel and this ethereal lift and purity. Has me in a spin, and delighted. Moreish red of dark cherry scents, sarsaparilla, terracotta, slightly coconut thing going on , curiously. Very, very satisfying wine here is the message. Lots of flavour, lots of pizzazz. Feels bolder in away, but delivers so much character and a kind of eyes rolled back in the head pleasure. What a treat. Mike Bennie - The Wine Front
