Tasting notes
Medium ruby-purple, the 2019 Pinot Noir Cleary Estate has a lovely expression, with inviting scents of red cherries, cranberries, rooibos tea leaves and conifer. The medium-bodied palate is powdery and seamless as it unfurls to layer after layer of floral perfume, and it has a very long, spicy finish.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Cleary Estate is fabulous. Rich, deep and explosive, the 2019 possesses tons of savory nuance to play off its layered dark fruit. This dry-farmed site in Freestone yielded a Pinot of remarkable pedigree and complexity.
