2022 Kelly Washington Organic Bannockburn Pinot Noir, Central Otago (6 x Bottle)
Tasting note
Fully expressing the vintage, and the site, this Bannockburn Pinot Noir exudes notes of ripe black cherries, dried herbs and savoury notes of forest floor. An evocative wine that is rich, textured and structured yet elegant and refined. A fine wine to age but also drinking beautifully now.
Our thoughts
For Kelly Washington wines, Tamra Washington and Simon Kelly seek the most unique and diverse parcels of high-quality fruit, focusing on old vines, high density planting, vineyards of altitude, and organic and biodynamic farming. This elegant wine displays classic Otago character and shows the rich quality of the fruit.

Vinous
The 2022 Pinot Noir is round and succulent, with an abundance of mouthcoating tannins that form a veil of texture for the cheeks. There’s no doubting its concentration nor richness of flavor, and its sheer mass is impressive. The wine comes together on the finish, tightening up thanks to a combination of whole bunch-derived tannins and mouthwatering acidity, creating a sense of tension as if it’s sucking in its tummy. Herbs, smoky notes and tea leaves linger on the savory, long finish.
