Peter Maude Fine Wines
2024, Felton Road MacMuir, Pinot Noir
$102
A little shy on first reveal, but then the deeply bound fruit and complexing aromatics begin to unfold. Powerful, deep and saturating – what we have come to expect from MacMuir. The unmistakeable Felton Road winemaking hand contains the package allowing it to gradually deliver, exposing layer upon layer. The site is special – a hedonistic wine that’s brooding, formidable and unique. feltonroad.com
The 2024 MacMuir Pinot Noir is inky and dark, with transparent-feeling fruit on the middle palate and savoury/fine tannins that shape the experience. There are notes of blackberry, black cherry, blood plum and cocoa. 13.9% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. 94 Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate (2026).
