Wow, this is plush. Broody and black-fruited, almost cinematic in its approach. Beautiful form – a multitudinous nose with black cherry, sage, pineberry, tobacco and Christmas berries. The oak influence is so deft, it meets the fruit with knowing restraint. Concentration on the palate billows through, spice folded in, some amaro brushstrokes, dried bay, the length disproportionate to the price. Violet, crystallised lavender, a dusting of earth; it’s a painter’s palette full of

I can't remember when I tasted my first Karriview pinot, but it was a long time ago. The vineyard is now in the hands of Paul Nelson and is making some wines that truly express character and vineyard terroir. The aromas are of slightly chalky, stalky red fruits with a cherry, raspberry combination. The palate has a fine thread of chalky tannins holding the sweet, medium-bodied red fruits. Oak and fruit balance is very good, and it has the poise to handle some extended cellaring. An impressive wine.

Swathes of purple wildflowers, red and black fruits and an increase in whole bunch (30%) this vintage sees the aromas lift and linger. It's a beautiful wine right now; the gentle and prolonged tannin extraction must've had a date with silk. It's glossy, though with enough crunch to see pangs of flavour burst through in cranberry, pomegranate and a dusting of anise. Crushed, sun-burnished leaf litter appears as the juicy red fruits give way to their savoury ends. Metronomic balance.

There is a lighter hue to this wine, but let that fool you. Red berry and christmas spice. The palate is oh so smooth. Lovely integrated oak that comes through late, but makes the palate all the more satisfying.
