Dry(ish)July, Winetopia and 5 Top Pinot Noirs
2019 Coal Pit Reserve The Leo Pinot Noir RRP $140-$150
The 2019 vintage marked the arrival of another grandson for Rosie and Mark Dunphy, the owners of Coal Pit Wines in the Gibbston Valley. This incredibly lush, plush, Pinot Noir has gorgeous red floral and red fruit aromas and flavours as well as a powerful full body. Just seven barrels were made and the wine is a blend of the best Pinot Noirs from a barrel tasting at the winery. This wine is a full bodied reflection of Gibbston Valley’s cool climate, at its best.
The verdict: A wine of beauty for now or 10 years' time.
18.5/20
