A soaring Pinot Noir from this long-renowned site by winemaking couple Tracy and Aaron Kendall. Hearing Tracy describe Momtazi, this wine makes perfect sense. ‘You're up at 850 ft in this wind-blown tunnel on this biodynamic site with almost no topsoil. It's these tiny little berries and this structured high-intensity wine. Check and check. The Momtazi Pinot Noir from Folly of Man begs to be aged but shows a beautiful capacity right out of the gates. Brilliant mint and sea spray aromas with taut, electric red fruits announced this coiled-up and structured Pinot Noir. The palate shows ripe Oregon Blackberry, rooibos tea, a brilliant note of pine sap, and briny ocean minerality. It's a gorgeous wine that will unwind marvellously over time.
