Bouchard Finlayson 'Galpin Peak' Pinot Noir, Walker Bay 2022
Enticing on the nose, very correct, sweet cherry fruit. Super wine and the flagship of the estate.
SAINT NICOLAS DE BOURGUEIL Les Malgagnes Domaine Yannick Amirault 2021
This is aged 80% in oak barrels and 20% in amphorae. This feels bright and more expressive on the nose, with raspberry notes and lightly grilled edges to the dark fruits. The palate is fresh and correct, with a softer wrapping of raspberry and blackcurrant fruits around a more grained and grippy core of tannins, which take the rather softly structured palate to the finish. This feels much more shaped by the barrels, and I prefer the Amphore version today, but will my opinion be reversed in five or ten years time I wonder.
