Nice sour start,
A little too warm to finish though
Nose and palate of strawberry and cherry yogurt. Quite long finish
A little rough altogether, but paid 16 bucks, I can't complain

Pale to mid crimson. Palate showing sweet cherry and plum fruit with spicy oak. Delicious now with short term cellaring potential. Proving once again how suitable Adelaide Hills is for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. (Also does great cool climate Syrah. )

Nice little cheeky Pinot for a midweek drink. Savory hints of black cherry fine tannins and all rounder. I'd be happy to drink this every night. #pinotnoir #goditsonlytuesday #ladolcevita

Mmmmmm Pinot. This is a lovely drink. Bright and tight this smells of raspberries and spice and travels smoothly over the tongue to my belly ;)
