James Halliday Reviews Oakridge 864 Henk Aqueduct Pinot Noir 2017
"Has the balance and length of great young pinot” ~ James Halliday
We are delighted to share the recent 97pt James Halliday review of the 2017 864 Henk Aqueduct
Pinot Noir. Australia’s most respected wine critic for over thirty years, Halliday’s Wine Companion is recognised as the industry benchmark for Australian wine.
“From the red volcanic soils of Woori Yallock. Hand-picked and sorted, 100% destemmed and wild-fermented with 21 days on skins, matured for 12 months in French oak (10% new). Has the wonderful colour, and the fragrance of spices, forest and red fruits, the palate with luscious fruit encased in silky tannins. Has the balance and length of great young pinot”

This wine is drinking beautifully now, but with careful cellaring, it will reward those who can wait until 2023 and up to 2030.
