Technical & Tasting Notes

Technical & Tasting Notes

VITICULTURE

A blend of three great Pinot Noir clones: 777, MV6 and D5V12, sourced from varying elevations and aspects on the vineyard.

WINE MAKING

A portion was fermented on indigenous yeast with some whole bunches included in the ferment. It was then matured for 12 months in French Oak Barriques.

TASTING NOTES

A lovely nose of plum and cherry with spice and floral notes. The palate is creamy and generous with vibrant cherry, strawberry and savoury notes. The wine is wonderfully textural with silky, polished tannins on the long finish.

Reviews

Reviews

Vintage 2021

“It’s beautifully ripe and enticing on the nose with sweet cherry, cured meat, warm mushroom and rich floral aromas. The palate delivers succulent fruit flavours and lovely concentration, wonderfully structured by fine grainy tannins. At its best: now to 2027. $35.00. www.coppabella.com.au.”Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Vintage 2018

“..Excellent colour, deep and clear; all the plum and cherry all-sorts you could wish for, discretely supplied by fine tannins and oak.” James Halliday

“.. Full of black cherries, spice, along with hints of sweet vanilla and some smokiness adds to the complexity of the nose. The palate follows through with soft tannins, integrated sweet fruit and well-balanced acidity. Vibrant in colour and vibrant in texture and flavour.” Stephen Read, Wine Matrix

“Bright and youthfully charming, the wine offers lifted aromas of sweet cherry, plum, floral and mixed spice on the nose, leading to a juicy palate that is beautifully rounded and flowing. Elegant and soothing with a lovely silky finish.” Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Vintage 2016 

“..distinctly but pleasantly savoury, with the whole bunch inclusion working well. The flavours span red, blue and purple fruits, neither tannins nor oak stepping out of line..” James Halliday

Vintage 2015

“The seductive bouquet shows spiced cherry, dried flowers, mixed spice and almond characters with hints of truffle and floral notes. The palate delivers refined mouthfeel and elegant fruit weight, wonderfully supported by silky texture and plenty of polished tannins. Restrained and complex, and offers layers of delightfully intriguing flavours.” – Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

” ..Jason Brown pinpoints the Coppabella brands with deadly precision, over-delivering on quality..” James Halliday

Vintage 2014

“It has just enough fruit and just enough weight to make you take notice. Reductive elements lend a hand to stewed cherry, plum and leather notes, with assorted spices and herbs doing their best to elevate the status of the wine….” – James Halliday
