Cobaw Ridge High Density Pinot Noir 2024

Wurundjeri Country. 

High Density, Hi-Tension. I loved the music of Hi-Tension, particularly their eponymous track Hi-Tension. Imaginative. Like S’Express with S’Express. Hi-Tension really took things to the next level. So too the High Density planting.

This is a meatier, plusher expression than expected but not without lift, perfume, herbal nuance, mineral charm, savouriness, a core of energetic acidity. And, importantly, and gee whiz, there is so much spice here. Brown spices invade on beef jerky, dried cranberry, dark cherry characters. A bit of Chinese salted, preserved plum too. It’s exotic, wild in a way, but also feels very elegant and harmonious. I say ‘thank you for character’ with pinot, it’s a world away from the dull fine wine paradigms of primped and preened polish, marching emphatically to its own beat. Loaded with character. Yum, yes thanks, more please Sir. - The Wine Front
