MacMuir Pinot Noir 2022 Felton Road

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (94)

The 2022 MacMuir Pinot Noir is here in its second vintage, a new wine in the lineup for Felton Road. On the nose, this is saturated in red fruit flavor, with pomegranate molasses, white and pink peppercorns, violets and sandalwood. There's a lovely flow to this wine; it has loads of flavor, but it is svelte, polished and gentle all the way. A sleek finish rounds it out. I like it very much.

James Suckling (96)

A rather smoky red on the nose with earthy, shiitake mushroom, lead pencil, dark cherry and strawberry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied and layered with lots of cloves and black pepper. Only the second bottling here. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification.

Jancis Robinson (17.50)

Deep ruby. Very meaty, with plenty of ripe black fruit layered with smoky, grilled notes. Chewy texture, elegant, velvety tannins. Structured, very long and delicious to drink now, but has the structure and depth to age for a long time.

Jasper Morris (93)

Lovely intense aromatics; morello cherry, plum, violets. Some dried thyme and sage. Tannins right there from the start, powdery and finely grained, contributing a bitter dark chocolate note. There is plenty of concentration underlying but this wine needs time to unfurl. Structured.
