The 2023 vintage at Jane Eyre Wines continues the tradition of producing refined and expressive wines with hallmark precision. Like 2022, 2023 was shaped by a warm growing season, but with the significant difference of ample rainfall when needed, keeping the soils well-nourished. The reds display lovely perfume, aromatics, and depth—qualities Jane prioritises in her Pinot Noirs—while the whites, after a slower start, have blossomed into vibrant, expressive examples of the vintage.
"Perfumed and refined, this wine blends bright red fruits—raspberries and currants—with floral notes of violets. Sweet red fruit fills the palate, supported by muscular yet smooth tannins, making it both elegant and approachable."
Our note
Jane’s use of whole-cluster fermentation increased in 2023, coupled with colder soaks at the start of fermentation. This approach has resulted in wines with richer colours and enhanced complexity. While the vintage is already showing expressive youthful charm, it also holds great potential for aging, making 2023 both approachable and collectible. The wines evolve quickly, offering fresh insights with each tasting.
What the critics say:
"A fine brisk ruby, lively red fruit, on the raspberry strawberry cusp. The fruit builds very nicely across the mid palate, just a little youthful bitterness, some crunchy fruit at the back, very elegant finish. Tasted Dec 2024 ****"
"Mid ruby. Refined nose of cherry and strawberry. Quite ample on the palate with ripe texture and quite concentrated. Finishes fine and light-footed."
