2019 Giant Steps - Pinot Noir Yarra Valley Applejack Vineyard (750ml)
95 Points
"This distinctive red offers a powerful, robust mix of blood orange, dried cherry and pomegranate flavors on a firm, muscular frame. Notes of baking spices, cigar box and salty black licorice linger on the finish, with a touch of sarsaparilla. Drink now through 2035."
—Wine Spectator
94 Points
"Grown on east-facing slopes at higher elevation than the Sexton Pinot, this Applejack is the more open and gregarious of the single-vineyard duo. Fleshy fruit sits happily between a melange of flavors including dried flowers, mushrooms and graphite. It's medium weight and silky, with smudgy, graphite-like tannins. The savory, herbal finish cries out for roast lamb or a tray of grilled, blistered veggies."
—Wine Enthusiast

"Expressively complex with plenty of red-cherry, strawberry and pomegranate aromas, as well as oak spice and sappy notes. The palate has impressive density with focus. The spiced blueberry flavors are intense, fresh and long and there's such vibrant acidity sustaining the long finish. Drink or hold."
