One whiff and this Tapanappa Foggy Hill showcases its pinosity. From a cooler, low cropping year, give it some time to show its best.
Let it breathe to witness red berries, briar, black tea, tilled earth, compost and cola gradually unfurl. More savoury than fruit-driven, I felt it seemed reluctant to go a little deeper, and as a result, it was holding itself back. On the second and third day of tasting, the red fruit that sits at the core started to shine. An array of super fine spices wrap around a finish that just hangs. Give it some time and it should continue to develop in the years to come.
