Jen Parr, Winemaker notes (2023 Vintage)
"Bright garnet hue with a lifted fragrance of blackberry, blueberry and dark cherry laced with wild thyme, evergreen, lily and sweet jasmine. The palate is buoyant and luxuriously fruited with dried herb spice and a delightful tangy finish. The tannins are generous yet fine, flowing in harmony with the fresh acidity. Layered and inviting at release, this wine is apt for cellaring and will continue to evolve for 20+/- years."

5 Stars & 97/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, April 2025 (2023 Vintage)
"Wonderfully fruited and lifted, the bouquet shows dark berry, cured meat, tar, olive, and hazelnut aromas. This leads to a wonderfully weighted palate delivering terrific fruit intensity with gorgeous complexity. Wonderfully framed by silky texture and layers of polished tannins, it is bold and sturdy with a super-long, harmonious finish. At its best: 2026 to 2038."

94/100 Erin Larkin, RobertParker.com, February 2025 (2323 Vintage)
"The 2023 Bannockburn Vineyard Pinot Noir is vibrant, lithe, spicy, saturated with red fruit flavor and persistent through the finish. In the mouth, the tannins are chalky, fine and pliable, and they serve to shape the fruit as it flows across the palate. The acidity contributes a little race and pace to the palate, but it all works in concert. This is a delicious wine of personality and elegance but, most importantly, of place."

5 Stars & 19.5-/20 (97) Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Review, April 2025 (2023 Vintage)
"Moderately deep ruby-red with a dark core, even colour throughout. The nose is alluring and slowly evolving with aromas of red cherry, plum, lifted floral notes, mineral, spices and forest floor. Medium-bodied, with aromas of red cherry and plum interweaved with medicinal herbs, liquorice, lavender, mushroom and cinnamon. The sweet, pure fruit reveals depth and lifted aromatics, layering whole bunches' floral and herbaceous details. Velvety tannins provide an opulent grip and vitality, linger to a long, savoury finish. This broody Bannockburn Pinot Noir is harmonious, well-structured and refined. Match with rack of lamb and roasted duck over the next 15 years. Fruit from Felton Road & Hall Road, fermented with 35% whole bunch, aged 11 months in French oak barrels, 27% new oak. 13.5% alc."
