TASTING NOTES

This Pinot Noir is your ticket to a deeply satisfying sip that feels both luxurious and comforting. From Terra Sancta’s original block in Bannockburn, the 2021 Slapjack Pinot Noir pours rich and silky with juicy layers of dark cherry and ripe plum, all wrapped in a warm, spicy hug. It’s that rare kind of wine that’s both plush and poised, showing off the unique charm of its clay-soiled home with effortless grace.

Imagine uncorking this beauty for a cozy dinner of roasted duck or mushroom risotto—where every bite and sip invite you to slow down and savor the night. Certified by a glowing 97-point rating from James Suckling, this wine is crafted with minimal intervention and wild fermentation to let its true terroir shine through. Whether it’s a special evening or a moment when you just want to treat yourself, Slapjack delivers a mouthfilling, complex experience that finds the perfect balance between power and elegance.

Scores

97/100

Subtle aromas of strawberry tart and rose petals with hints of graphite and gunpowder. Complex nose. Full-bodied but not heavy, with an agile and floating palate that shows so much character but is always svelte. Fine tannins that integrate with fresh acidity. An intellectual and intriguing pinot. Will age beautifully. Drink or hold.
