Pyramid Valley Snake's Tongue Pinot Noir 2021

Olivia Wong — Really nice but ouch the price

8/10

My mate brought this round for a dinner party and we all loved it. Loads of fruit but not heavy or jammy like some pinots can be. That said, at nearly £100 a bottle I'm not sure I'd buy it myself — there are solid pinot noirs for half the price. But if someone else is pouring, I'm not saying no.

Ruth Banks — Good but not £100 good

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant wine list and thought I'd treat myself. It's a nice wine, no question — smooth, interesting, decent length on the finish. But I've had pinot noirs at £40-50 that I've enjoyed just as much. Maybe I'm missing something but I expected more wow factor at this price point.

Noah Williams — Worth every penny for a special night

9/10

Bought this for our anniversary dinner and it was genuinely one of the best pinot noirs I've had. Really clean and expressive on the nose — you can smell it as soon as you pour. The acidity keeps everything in check even though it's 14%, which I was a bit worried about. Would absolutely buy again for a special occasion.
