The 2012 Morey St. Denis is a gorgeous wine at this level. Dark red and black fruit notes flesh out on in a dense yet inviting wine loaded with depth, nuance and complexity. Sweet licorice and tobacco notes develop of time, but first and foremost the Morey is a wine of structure, length and gorgeous polish.

Bannockburn is spicy with well intergraded savoury oak and great acidity backbone. The varietal flavours such as, raspberries, strawberries and red cherries fruits lingers with a faint hint of forest floor on the palate with well supporting tannins. A greatly composed wine, this is undoubtedly pushing the setting of this country's benchmark for Pinot Noir to another level.

Fragrant ripe blueberry fruit aromas plus pepper, mushroom & toasty oak. The palate shows dark fruits & liquorice intermingled with toasty vanillin oak notes, preceding a long lasting, pepper & spicy tannin finish. The medium weight but firm structure & fruit vibrancy of this wine ensure it has many possible food matches.
