Allegiance Wines L’Artiste Tumbarumba Pinot Noir 2021

From the edge of the Snowy Mountains comes this lighter style Pinot Noir, from a region which has become a consistent source of Chardonnay and Pinot fruit, mainly used in sparkling wines. This lovely red certainly paints the town Gold. Bright ruby in colour, delicate aromas of strawberries and roses lead to strawberry and pomegranate flavours balanced by juicy acidity. Would dance nicely with a roasted duck and cranberry salad. "A lovely restrained style, it's delicately fragrant on the nose showing red berry, floral, olive and mixed spice aromas. The palate displays gentle weight and roundness, nicely structured by fine texture and polished tannins" (Sam Kim, Wine Orbit).
