Description

Principia pinot noir 2022Consistently superb Mornington pinot noir from the talented hands of Darrin Gaffy. Excellent mid weight style here, with red berry fruit and beautifully balanced acidity. Something of a dark horse winery, few have heard of it, and although small, Principia packs a powerful punch. Don't go looking for the cellar door btw there isn't one, just a big shed full of barrels and a ferocious Alsatian.

and keeps it's lovely acidity even in hot summers - one reason why it is starting to do very well here in Australia

A little wine maker funk adds even more to the mix

Real class at a moderate price

The lovely people at Cincinnato specialise in rescuing forgotten and nearly extinct grape varieties

After a holiday to Etna he decided to move there and established a vineyard on the northern slopes of Europe's largest volcano

and indeed these lands only officially joined Italy after the Second World War and still have deep ties to Slovenia and northern Croatia

such as cured meats

background information

this wine represents a serious bargain

Excellent mid-weight style here

but there's a ripeness to it that shows the Tuscan sun
