Jules Taylor Pinot Noir 2020

The wine shows splendid fruit purity together with elegant complexity, delivering Black Doris plum, violet, olive and roasted nut characters with hints of olive and mushroom. It’s juicy and beautifully layered on the palate, leading to a persistent silky finish. Harmonious and seductively comforting. At its best: now to 2026. Score – 94.
