Sapling Yard The Four Pinots 2024

"I like the Sapling Yard diversity and entertaining suite of releases so much. This blend is Pinot Gris, Noir, Meunier, Blanc – the whole mutant family! It’s 60% Pinot Gris, the rest Pinot Noir + Pinot Meunier from Moppity’s Tumbarumba vineyard plus 5% Pinot Blanc from the Sapling Yard vineyard in Braidwood. Some old oak and some time on skins (for the Gris portion). It’s actually more white wine than orange or rosé despite the pale orange salmon colour. Has some lovely layers to it – rose fragrance, and a palate of orange juice, strawberry. There’s a murkiness here that makes it seem more fun and bright. Nice textures, even if I wanted a little more complexity rather than affable. I like plenty about the style. Best drinking: now. 17.5/20, 91/100.Would I buy it? I’d share a bottle." - Ozwinereview
