About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Pinot NoirAdelaide Hills, AustraliaThe cool-climate of the Adelaide Hills has proven to be a haven for Pinot Noir and is quickly establishing a reputation akin to the benchmark Australian regions. Tim Knappstein from Riposte harnesses the qualities of the region and the varietal with effortless ease with his The Sabre. Bright colour in the glass is followed by a lifted floral nose with a savoury edge. The palate is fresh, clean and superbly powerful. A delight.

This is gorgeously composed and styled with grace and seductive complexity. The enticing bouquet shows dark berry, dried herb, charcuterie, earthy mushroom and warm spice aromas, leading to a concentrated palate offering refined texture and fine flow. Beautifully woven tannins provide elegant structure and frame to this sensually appealing pinot. At its best: now to 2033.
