“The 2020 Pinot Noir Cuvee Aux Antipodes is an intensely concentrated wine created from tiny yields (20hl/ha). Small berries have contributed to the richness of tannin. Still, the hands-off approach of winemaker François Millet means they have been gently extracted, creating an assured frame for the wine to sit in without any aggression. This is a savory style, restraining the fruity nature of Central Pinot, creating layers of intrigue from black olive and Worcestershire sauce to dried herbs and smoked meats. It has great acidity, providing invigorating energy on the finish, which reflects the cooler vintage. There’s staying power in this wine, no doubt, and it’s a good cellaring prospect.”
