Very high quality Pinot Noir, grown biodynamically and made to be gutsy and full without being overblown. Fab stuff, this is drinkable now but ages beautifully over a ten year period, when it develops a range of tertiary flavours. (CW 27/09/12)

Lisa Perotti-Brown
The 2011 Cornish Point Pinot Noir has a pale to medium ruby-purple color with fragrant, crushed red cherry, wild strawberry and rose petal aromas laced with hints of cinnamon stick, Nutella on toast and lavender. Full-bodied and opulent in the mouth, it is already very expressive, showing a good fruit concentration, with spicy notes and framed by a medium level of fine tannins and refreshing acidity. It finishes long. It should drink best 2013 to 2018+. 92+ points
