A bit light almost watery. Good freshness though. Hint of RS. Floral and spice. Slightly harsh phenolics.

Zesty lime aromas, smooth and easy drinking. Good food wine.

Drinking the Bannockburn Pinot Noir in Bannockburn and it’s lovely. Juicy berries and velvety smooth.

Well balanced. The usual burst of citrus and nectarine. Went beautifully with a platter, in particular the blue cheese.
