2021 FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard

FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard 2021
This wine greets you with a transparent dark red colour followed by complex red and blue Pinot aromas with a fine floral lift, underpinned by subtle forest floor notes. The palate exudes a delicate minerality as well as a seductive inner mouth perfume that leads into a blend of red cherry and earth/spice flavours, supported by very fine tannins. This is a classic Fromm Vineyard Pinot Noir from an excellent vintage, refined and understated.

Supremely elegant pinot noir with floral/rose petal, black cherry, cassis, spice, cedar, vanilla and French oak flavours. Perfectly balanced wine with impressive restrained power. It promises to age well in bottle. 04 OCT 2023

Complex, youthful, powerful and varietal with a bouquet of just picked red and black cherry, plums and mineral, spices of earth and barrel, there’s a fine seam of savoury complexity and a wild flowers quality. Firm and dry as the wine touches the palate with an abundance if ripe polished tannins with a youthful power and vibrato, a backbone of acidity and berry flavours that mirror the bouquet. A delicious wine with a persistent power and intensity, balanced and judicious use of oak with baking spice and gentle smoky wood qualities, a firm structure and long finish. Best drinking from 2026 through 2036+.

FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard 2020
Textbook Pinot colour, bright-red and transparent. There is an airy nose of Mediterranean dried herbs and spice notes with subtle forest floor and some wildflower aromas, all making up the complex yet refined flavour profile that follows through on the palate. This wine has already immediate appeal; seamless, complex, seductive and understated at the same time, and it finishes with very fine, persistent tannins.  This is Pinot Noir for those who appreciate the fine and delicate details that speak more of the wine’s terroir than the grape variety. As such it is more about a sense of place than fruit expression.

Beautiful, dark Pinot colour, nice density but still positively transparent. The nose opens with dark red fruit aromas, lifted by some primary, floral sweetness, combined with forest floor underbrush notes and a subtle hint of tar, typical for this terroir.

Moderately concentrated pinot noir with red-fleshed plum, charcuterie, crushed herbs, new leather and cranberry flavours. A taut, high-energy wine that should develop well with bottle age. 03 MAR 2021

FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard 2017

Our FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard reflects over a quarter of a century of farming our patch of land just west of Renwick. It’s grown, not ‘made’, and represents a style of Pinot that we love …elegant and subtle with complexity and
structure.

This 2017 has an alluring nose, opening with charming bright fruit, sweet spice and inviting florals – all wrapped in lifting minerality. The palate shows effortless structure, supported by ripe red fruit and fine persistent tannins that flow across
the mouth. The acidity is balance and conducive to a long elegant finish.

FROMM Pinot Noir Fromm Vineyard 2016

Made from the best fruit that our ‘Home Vineyard’ offers, this Pinot opens with pretty dark red fruits and alluring violet florals, before unravelling to reveal lifted spice and more than a hint of earthy minerality. The palate shows a wonderful sense of detail with pure mineral driven flavours and fine persistent tannins.

95 Points , 5 Stars          
'Elegant pinot noir with appealing fruit sweetness and an intriguing mix of fruit (plum, dark cherry and blueberry) and savoury (hot earth, pepper, fresh herbs and spicy oak) flavours. A supple wine that can be enjoyed now but will certainly repay those who choose to cellar it." Bob Campbell
