Reviews

review Fromm Cuvée H Pinot Noir 2020Sam Kim, Wine Orbit: 96/100. Stylish and enticing, the bouquet shows ripe cherry, thyme, roasted nut and tapenade aromas, followed by a concentrated palate that's gracefully silky and flowing. Beautifully layered with complex flavours and textured mouthfeel, finishing superbly long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2034.

 

review Fromm Cuvée H Pinot Noir 2020Cameron Douglas MS: 96/100.  Tasted over three days this wine deserves to be cellared reaching its full aroma package towards day three. Scents of black berry and black currant woven between barreal spice and mineral nuances. There’s a distinctive sense of place with this wine showcasing a mix of mineral earth and savoury spices along with red berry fruits. Delicious on the palate with fine to moderate textures, taut and youthful mouthfeel delivering ripe chalky tannins then fruit and mineral. A complex and engaging wine with a lovely fine even finish. Best drinking from 2024 through 2034.

 

Review Fromm Cuvée H Pinot Noir 2020” width=Bob Campbell, MW (The Real Review, 13 JUL 2022): 95/100.  Lifted floral aroma with flavours suggesting cassis, dark cherry, dark-fleshed plum, liquorice, and smoky oak. Moderately intense wine with bright, high energy flavours and a fine, peppery texture. Should develop well. Cellar 2022–2033.

 

Tasting Note

Dense, deep red colour. The nose is concentrated yet fragrant with dark fruit aromas (cherries, black currant, blackberries), spices, mineral notes, complex, focused and very expressive. On the palate again concentration without being heavy. An elegant Pinot Noir with beautiful transparency, excellent structure and tension and very fine tannin support in the finish.
