LANGTONS Confidential MMXIII Pinot Noir 6 pack

This Confidential release hails from a distinguished site on the Fleurieu Peninsula where the cool Southern Ocean regulates the climate just 8km away. The 2024 season has been described by the winery as a "heartbreak vintage"—while quality is exceptional, yields were drastically low (down to 20% at this specific vineyard) due to difficult flowering conditions. The result is a wine of scarce quantity but immense "soul, depth and a comforting embrace". Matured for eight months in French oak (33% new), it balances its cool-climate strawberry and red cherry fruit with a complex layer of "woodsy spices" and "five spice". It has already secured high praise, with QWine awarding it 95 points and noting that the "brilliance of the winemaker is in full cry".
