The 2020 Bannockburn Pinot Noir is abundant and satisfying, with a core of huddled red fruits on the mid-palate. The wine is ripe and ample through the finish, giving the wine a rounded shape in the mouth. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

The 2020 Pinot Noir Bannockburn is welcoming as well as rich, savory and sinewy, delivering a plump cloud of both lifted and brooding fruit: a portion of whole-cluster fermentation has brought herbal and violet high notes alongside red and black cherry. There's excellent concentration despite this being the entry to the Felton Pinot range, and fine, lightly furry tannins on the medium-long finish. This could be approached now, but it’s better to wait a couple of years to let the components settle.
