Description
"Medium-full ruby to brick-red colour, the bouquet has minty/pine-needle dominant notes, somemellow red fruits beneath that remind us that we're tasting pinot noir. In the mouth, it's medium-weight and starting to show distinct mellowing effects of bottle age, pleasant but lacks intensity and extract. There is tannin but also a thinness to the mouth-feel. Probably best drunk up sooner than later." - Huon Hooke
"This is attractive. You’d never know that it was five years old but, even so, the extra time has served the wine well. It’s complex. It stretches its legs nicely. It tastes of earth and undergrowth, sweet-sour cherries and five-spice, forest characters and game. It works. It’s good." - 92 points, Campbell Mattinson
