Radford Dale Vinum Pinot Noir 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Western Cape
R198
‘Supple and sweet with lovely cherry and strawberry fruit showing nice texture and a slight sappy edge. So juicy but with silkiness and smoothness too. Very fine and accessible. But elegant, too.’ – Jamie Goode, Wineanorak.com, 93/100
‘Light ruby colour. Sweet, tangy red fruit, sweet and aromatic without being in the least confected. Vibrant and juicy fruit, more redcurrant and red cherry than strawberry, with a gentle note of oak spice. Definite but fine-grained tannins already smooth, refreshingly sweet/sour on the finish and more savoury on the aftertaste, and harmoniously fresh. In the days of Pinot Noir inflation, this is QGV. 2023-2027’ – Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20
‘Medium ruby, with a crimson rim. Strawberry and black cherry with subtle clove notes that typify the variety. Engaging notes of fresh berries and dark plums add immediate appeal. The medium palate shines with a satin texture and beautifully refined tannin, leading to a long, tapering finish, leaving pleasant echoes of raspberry and plums on the palate.’ – Winemaker
