Nice Pinot perfume showing some cherry notes with stalky whole bunch characters. Donut on the middle palate with a slightly tannic finish. M- Intensity. Certainly shows as a Yarra Valley Pinot with a % of whole bunch.

Woah. What a pinot! Great vintage, balance between fruit, vineyard and winemaking. So focused. Great depth and tension. Delicious.

Pretty straightforward Pinot. Deep red cherry. Not tutti fruitti at least.

Good varietal character including cherries and some mushrooms, from a difficult vintage. This is under cork which is a shame as I have found different bottles in the same box to vary markedly.

Initially cherries, but quickly develops meaty/gamey flavours. Quite subtle, but delicious. Looking forward to trying this with food...
