The 2019 Boekenoogen Morgan Pinot Noir spends 10 months in French oak barrels with 40% being new. The wine is brooding and rich on the nose with elements of black raspberry, dusted cocoa powder, tangerine peel, Christmas spices, slow roasted pork with plum sauce, and a hint of black pepper. The palate is rich in body, showing beautiful structure that is balanced between the decadent fruit flavors, the acidity and the structured yet integrated tannins. Drinks beautifully now but will last another decade or more with proper cellaring. Only 119 cases produced.
