Family Vineyards is an equal combination of north and south-facing sites and is correspondingly self-assured and well balanced. Fermented with 20% whole bunches and aged in 29% new oak, it has lovely weight and freshness, goji berry, pomegranate and wild strawberry flavours and precise, granular tannins. 94 points

Pinot on sandstone and granite clay. So much fruit! It`s bounding out the glass with enthusiastic pizzazz. Sweet strawberries and strawberry leaves. Borage-leaf notes, a little minty, fresh and fragrant. Super-lithe tannins. A friendly lick-your-face puppy of a wine. You want to scoop it up and not let it go. 16.5 points
