2022 Bindi Dixon Pinot Noir 750ml

The Dixon is considered the early drinking Pinot Noir in the range. Everything you could possibly hope for in Pinot Noir, as if what you could imagine is on show here. Gamey notes of Serrano, the fruit is red and very sweet, like freshly picked English strawberries and raspberries, and this is cut through with lashings of amaro, chocolate orange, savoury and sweet spice. Effortless flow, slightly round, yet with a pithy tannic cut; a reminder of serious intent. There is certainly immense pleasure if you were to open a bottle today, but if you can hold it for another 5 years or so, the pleasure dial would be twisted to the extreme.Waters Wine Co

The 2022 Dixon spent 10 months in barrel and was bottled in early March.This wine is a composition of sections of the original 1988 planting and the 2001 Kaye vineyard. It has a lifted nose of red and black cherries, wild strawberries, earth and spice. The palate is fresh, supple, builds in texture and has vibrant and intense length. As always, it will be more complex, silky and flowing in three plus years and be enjoyed for a decade or more.
