Akitu A2 Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir 2021 750ml

Mid Garnet with a gentle brick red ruby depth.

Fresh and lifted with warm spice and gentle fruit expression. Complex earthy humitic detail across fresh red cherry and subtle smoked herbs, graphite, and mineral dust. Vivid, lifted and perfumed fruit with a charming rose petal dimension – almost festive. Deep fresh fruit of plum and cherry. Complexity set well with the bright fruit and some brown spice rack. There’s a subtle hint of Negroni amongst the whole bunch perfume.

Fresh and very succulent – a lovely plush entry with dark cherry and subtle smoky herb complexity with graphite. Long and deep with cherry pips, real core and depth but open knit. Polished and gentle tannins flow over silky acid - generous. Great volume with no hint of heaviness - excellent approachability even celebratory.

There is no need to be bashful, this wine is made to be enjoyed fresh and free.  When the founder specified this cuvee he said “Let’s make a wine that you don’t need to write about or study – let’s just make something that’s truly delicious. Moorish”.  Mission accomplished. 

Food – BBQ beef burger with Al Brown’s Old Yella Habanero Mustard – try it a little chilled.
