Ten Minutes by Tractor McCutcheon Pinot Noir 2022

A symphony of rose petal, sweet rhubarb, spiced sumac, bramble, and autumnal characters lift from the glass. This is a classic McCutcheon Pinot with elegant red fruits and a finely detailed structure. There is an ever changing range of secondary and fruit characters that evolve beautifully in the glass, given time. It is a complex wine that is alluring, light on its feet and leads a merry dance right to the end.

With a La Niña weather pattern controlling the season, the wet spring and start to the summer delayed bud burst and flowering. Below average temperatures and rainfall over summer allowed the grapes to ripen slowly but evenly, resulting in great concentration of flavour and good natural acidity.
