Casey @ Travelling Corkscrew

This was an emergency wine pick up from Liquorland for $15. I didn't want to crack into a bottle from the cellar so it was a quick trip to the local bottlo and I ended up with this Kiwi Pinot.

Light ruby on the eye with black and red plums, earthiness, bark and a touch of blueberries on the nose. Easy drinking on the palate with a lovely oomph of fruity flavour and a decent finish. A good wine on its own not too overpowering or filling - you know those nights you may over indulge at dinner and struggle to fit even liquid in after? This is the ticket!

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!

Drinkable, nothing to write home about but I'd pay $15 aud max for a bottle.
