Dark red. Pungent, floral- and spice-accented aromas of dark berries and incense are lifted by a smoky mineral quality. Sappy and broad on the palate, offering gently sweet blackberry and cherry cola flavors and a touch of peppery spices. The floral and smoke notes come back strong on the powerful finish, which clings with good tenacity and chewy, slow-mounting tannins. This brawny Pinot benefits greatly from aeration.

The 2014 Pinot Noir The Kilmore was matured in new French oak for ten months (44% new). It has pinched blackcurrant and raspberry coulis-scented bouquet that needs more intensity and personality to develop. The palate is medium-bodied with blackberry and raspberry notes on the entry. It lacks some depth and attenuates towards the finish that demonstrates some astringency. It needs to fill out over the next years, evolve more flesh because it feels broody and dour at the moment.
