"Fresh red currants, wild strawberries and rose hips followed by zesty citrus peel and cedar. Medium-bodied, refreshing acidity and firm yet finely-grained tannins. Underlying complex and savory minerality of mushrooms and wet leaves on the palate and finish. Serious depth and length. Piquant and zesty. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"The Last Chance Vineyard is in the hills above Earnscleugh (pronounced "earn-skloo") and is a relatively bony site fed by the Last Chance water race and hand dug by the early gold miners in the 1860s. It's a special spot, one that I drove to so I could get a clear understanding of the Earncleugh Valley layout. So, this 2021 The Last Chance Pinot Noir is, like all the Proprietor's Reserve Pinots, around 80% whole bunch, and each of the sites wears this differently. This is the first cuvée where the whole bunch is evident in the wine, and it creates a capacious mid-palate, drawing out length on the finish. It's a special wine—they all are—and one that, via the stems (I never say this, as stems can sometimes work against the expression of terroir), seems to speak of the wild place. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."
