Terra Sancta Jackson's Block Pinot Noir 2024 (750ml)

A classic expression of Bannockburn Pinot Noir, Jackson’s Block 2024 reflects both its dramatic mountain setting and the quiet authority of vines planted in 1991. This is a site that consistently delivers depth and structure, and in 2024 it does so with striking clarity and precision.

The aromatics are layered and savoury: dark cherry and crushed blackberry lead into notes of dried strawberry, clove, white pepper and a fine thread of flint and iodine. There’s a lifted floral edge, but the wine leans confidently into its darker, more serious register.

On the palate, it is linear and architectural. Crushed berries and black cherry unfold across a firm framework of ripe, finely honed tannins. The structure is pronounced yet beautifully controlled — powerful without excess, carrying the fruit with authority and focus. Wild fermentation and minimal intervention preserve both site and season, allowing the mineral, dark-fruited character to speak clearly.

The finish is long and resonant, with spice and savoury nuance lingering well beyond the last sip. A poised and structured Pinot Noir that will reward patience, evolving gracefully as its tannins soften and its layered complexity deepens.
