Ten Minutes by Tractor
Coolart Road Pinot Noir
Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia
One of the lighter bodied Cuvées from Ten Minutes. My favourite is the Judd vineyard for Pinot Noir. See previous Coolart Road notes. Mid crimson in colour. Red cherry, varnishy smoky nose. Barely medium weight palate but M plus intensity of flavour. My last 2015 Coolart Road. We had a great cellar visit and lunch just before Christmas 2023.

Jan 20th, 2024Bought on a visit to the Cellar Door several years ago. Mid Ruby red. Notes of charred oak and stewed fruits. A light to medium weight palate - overall a lean perspective. Of all of the individual Pinot Cuvées from Ten Minutes I feel Coolart Road has been the least impressive - at least in 2015.

Medicinal, leafy, eucalyptus, black cherries, smells like Fernet Branca (in a good way); flavours of blackcurrants, black cherries, herbal and medicinal, firm tannins and fresh with a long herbal finish
