Saint Clair Pioneer Block 12 Lone Gum Pinot Noir 2013

The ongoing rise of the stature of this winery’s pinot noir continues – this is one of seven Saint Clair wines to receive four stars or more at this tasting. Fresh dark fruit laced with sweet oak notes are underpinned by fine-boned tannins and acids. With its lightness and energy, it would work well served with warm smoked salmon and a dill sauce.
