James Suckling
A soft and round pinot, showing so much crushed and ripe strawberries and hints of smoke and orange peel. Full body. Creamy and delicious. So drinkable now. But will be better in a year or two.
Medium red. Beautifully aromatic, ethereal and gorgeous red currant flavours. Supple perfumed aromas, gentle texture, layers of red and dark fruits, silky tannins.
