The Mt Atmos is a great Tassie Pinot from the Brown Stable. Deep red cherry and earthiness. Tough and bold but really opened up and lost its machoness as we sat on it in the afternoons. Soft tannin and a savoury tertiary tone on the finish. — 8 years ago

Love the colour. It's that murky brick red that has it stand out. So balanced on the nose with sweet red cherry and that earthy pungency with a hint of vanilla and cinnamon. So smooth, almost creamy mouthfeel. Has the bottle suggests does its work on the mid palate with very delicate tannin and that earthiness coming out on the finish. One of the worlds greatest Pinot producers. — 8 years ago

Brilliant. High acidity and cutting citrus made this a palate cleansing desert Riesling. You could drink this early or let in a meal and clearly cellar for a long time. As our Somm suggested you could drink yourself sober with this wine — 8 years ago

Just a telly consistent complex and well balanced Pinot that opens up slowly. Savoury and masculine midpalet with a layered attack of red cherry and earthiness. Easy tannin and a elegant finish — 8 years ago

Fresh crisp LP, easy drinking and delectable. Apple notes with tartness that makes it feel like the summer champagne. Delightful acidity, butterfly, apple pie — 8 years ago
