Scorpo Eocene Original Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

Passion for wine is in the Scorpo blood. It is a whole family operation stretching across generations and geography – from Sicily to Sardinia and now Australia. Today, the Scorpo family vineyard in Merricks North, on Australia’s Mornington Peninsula combines old world practices with new world flavours. Scorpo Wines combines the family heritage with expertise in growing premium grapes, meticulous attention to site selection, and a best practice approach to vineyard management and processes, trusting the old axiom that great fruit makes great wine. This wine is focused and precise. The nose opens up with a mix of fresh raspberries as well as raspberry coulis. There is depth to the nose that then presents fresh herbs and spices such as cardamom and nutmeg. The palate showcases great balance and poise with raspberry, blood orange and cranberries on display. The fine emery tannins sit comfortably alongside a firm acid backbone. – Paul Scorpo The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Pinot Noir Country – Australia Region – Mornington Peninsula, VIC Vintage – 2020 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 13%
