Aromas of earth, stalks and mushroom with dark savoury cherries in the background. Whole bunch fermentation? More savoury than fruit driven. Quite Burgundian in many respects. In the restrained elegant style with good length. 6 weeks later took a bottle to an average Thai BYO on the Gold Coast served in cheap glasses. In such conditions the wine never shows well when the food is not up to scratch.

Was lovely, however had a bit less body than I remembered. I miss my Coldstream Hills!

Succulent cherry and strawberry notes combine with a rich and funky palate, full of complex earthy, wet straw, smoky and dried meat flavours. The flavours are beautifully balanced and the wine has a generous, slightly creamy, mouthfeel. The tannins are supple and chocolaty, the finish long and lingering. Should be a show stopper with more cellar time. A captivating and deliciously moorish pinot.

A little bit underwhelming for the price and reputation. Came up a bit short on the palate. Pleasant and a reasonable Pinot but was expecting more
