Giant Steps
2021 Sexton Vineyard Pinot Noir
93 Points Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front

Vineyard is at the wonderfully-named Gruyere, planted in 1997. North-facing, exposed site. Cherry pie, sweet and delicious, with earthier/meatier aspects. It’s like drinking sweet roasted lamb, studded with berries and herbs. Blue fruit aspects here, woodsy herbs, sweet acidity through the finish. It’s not simple but it feels like a simple pleasure, if that makes sense; it just has that drink-me-now exuberance. That said the tannin here is beautifully crafted. I’d drink this before the others in the Single Vineyard range though it may well hold for as long as any of them. Up-front pinot deliciousness, with substance, is the message here.
