Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"The Bannockburn Pinot Noir is Carrick's flagship wine, and the wine that we feel best represents the strong connection we have with our site. Known for its structure and ability to age well over a long period of time, the fruit is hand-picked from a selection of vineyards across the estate, parcels that were 28 years old in 2022. The 2022 summer was warm, with rain replenishing the vines at the beginning of Autumn, a dry finish around harvest and settled weather over flowering, led to good yields and quality.

Comprised of 4 different vineyard parcels, and a mix of clones 10/5, 5, and 13, each hand-picked at optimum ripeness, destemmed, then fermented separately. Spending between 17 22 days on skins, the wine was pressed, then aged in barrel for 10 months, with 19% new French oak barriques used. Each barrel was hand-selected then blended together, for a further 6 months maturation in tank before bottling, unfined and coarse filtered.

The 2022 Bannockburn Pinot Noir is vibrant, elegant, and balanced. With notes of cherry, cranberry, redcurrant, thyme, and tea leaf. The palate is long and complex, framed by fine tannin."

Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, June 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"A lovely bouquet of flowers and light red berry fruits, some gentle savoury spice qualities and definitive gentle textures. Fine tannins in abundance with a backbone of acidity frame a core of red cherry, strawberry and plum fruit flavours. The savoury scent in the bouquet repeats with a light dried herb quality as well. A youthful and generous wine with plenty of energy and a lengthy finish. Best drinking from 2025 through 2030+."

4 Stars Cuisine Pinot Noir Tasting, April 2025 (2022 Vintage)
"A delicate and enjoyable wine with lovely poise and tension that is drinking very well right now. It has a medium colour with savoury tea-leaf notes that sit alongside the cherries and plums. The palate is soft and generous without being overly concentrated."
