K1 by Geoff Hardy Pinot Noir 2010,Australia K1 by Geoff Hardy price supplier

Adelaide Hills cool climate Pinot Noir has long been regarded as the best S.A. can produce. The K1 vines are of low yield and are pruned to arched canes for extra light interception on the fruit and optimum balance. Hand harvesting the fruit ensures that the grapes are in top condition for their traditional vinification.

An elevated nose with generous amounts of fruit aromas like black cherry, plum and tamarillo. More savoury notes to follow through with Middle Eastern spices of clove, Star Anise and cinnamon. Hints of delicate marjoram and bay leaf.

The palate comes alive with an intense juicyness carried through from the nose. A fine tannin line brings softness and harmony to the mouth feel whilst the finish is accentuated and lifted by the natural acidity of the wine.

Pair with a local favorite such as wild duck or enjoy a glass or two with family and friends.

Further cellaring of 5-10 years will bring out the savoury and earthy characters synonymous with high-quality Pinot's.
