Coombe Pinot Noir Yarra Valley Victoria 2022

ONLY 3 BOTTLES LEFT OF THIS DISCONTINUED WINE. Here are the tasting notes for Coombe Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2022 — a cool-climate Pinot Noir from Yarra Valley, Victoria, Australia: �� Appearance Medium ruby colour typical of Yarra Valley Pinot Noir, hinting at both red and darker fruit intensity. �� Aroma (Nose) Fresh perfumed aromatics featuring dark purple fruits layered with subtle smoky wood spice. Expect characters of red currants, wild raspberry and nuanced earthy notes that add complexity. �� Palate (Taste) Red fruit domination on the palate — think raspberry, red currant and plum flavours carried through from the nose. The fruit is complemented by soft spice and woody nuances from light whole-bunch fermentation and oak influence. Medium weight with a balanced texture: lees work contributes a rounded mid-palate and bright acidity gives lift. �� Structure & Finish A fairly medium-bodied Pinot Noir with well-framed tannins that provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is clean and elegant, showcasing persistence of the juicy red fruits and spice notes. �� Food Pairing Pairs nicely with: Roast duck or chicken Pork with herbs Mushroom risotto or grilled salmon Charcuterie and medium-strength cheeses Style summary:This vintage reflects the Yarra Valley’s cool-climate Pinot Noir style — perfumed red fruit, subtle earthy/spice complexity, soft tannins and bright acidity — making it approachable now but also suitable for short-term cellaring.
