Natalie's Score: 92/100

Wakefield 2021 Pinot Noir is dry, medium-bodied and excellent value at $20. Produced from several sites throughout the Adelaide including Gumeracha, Birdwood, Woodside, Oakbank and Balhannah and matured for nine months in oak barrels, look for bright cherry, red berry, menthol, cedar and toasty oak spice flavours vibrant on the palate. Lightly chill and pour with a mixed grill.

Pinot Noir food pairings: veal cutlets, lamb kebabs, roast root vegetables.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Great value for this wine, aromas of cherry and raspberry, with hints of cedar, spice and smoke. Medium bodied with bright acidity and light tannins. Berry notes are bright and tart with an earthy hints on the finish. Enjoy with grilled pork or salmon.
