2 x Bottle 1: Domaine De La Cote Estate Pinot Noir 2021 - 95 points

Bloom’s Field spans the southwest-facing hillside that delineates the windward edge of their domaine. From first pour, this dark, glossy Pinot Noir’s complex aromas suggest earth and stone; but soon powerful high tones of fresh and dried flowers appear, merging with notes of bramble and pink peppercorn. Eventually, the savoury aromas give way to an emergence of dark, ripe cherries. Dense, lush, and luxuriant, its tannins and acidity are seamlessly integrated, giving the impression of a fully formed, complete wine.
