2018 Summertown Reserve “beautifully balanced”

CREATING CLASSIC AUSTRALIAN WINES

Terre à Terre Summertown Reserve Pinot Noir 2018

“Another winner from talented couple Xavier Bizot and Lucy Croser; a beautifully balanced cool-climate pinot from the Summertown vineyard – one of the oldest in the region – in the Piccadilly Valley of the Adelaide Hills. The quality fruit has soaked up the 40% new French oak and the wine presents with pure pinosity. No surprise as the Terre a Terre team feels the climate here is very similar to that of Burgundy. So an Australian pinot with a definite French accent made in tiny quantities. I liked this a lot; primarily because it is bloody delicious, even in its youth.”
