Carillion Six Clones Pinot Noir 2022

Fun Fact: Blue moons are more common than 97 Point Pinot Noirs for less than $30.  I had a quick look through the Piot Noirs to receive 97 points in Halliday's Wine Companion over the last 20 years.  There's a few.  There's been 7 blue moons in that time.

In the Halliday Companion about to be released I can add one more to the exclusive list- Carillion Six Clones Pinot Noir 2022.

It received 97 Points. Halliday lists an RRP of $45 and one retailer has set the price at $40.  But we've discounted the price and we have it for $29.99.

Carillon is a well established winery in Australia's 'on trend' wine region - Orange, NSW.   As the name suggests, this wine is a mix of five Burgundian clones meld together and what a result this produced in 2022.

In terms of taste, the palate is awash with dark cherry notes, a savoury backbone complemented by a swathe of plush tannins on the long, lingering finish. The balance of the wine is world class.

With a 97 point rating, a $29.99 price tag and Halliday's Companion about to be released, this is guaranteed to sell out before the next blue moon.
