Region/G.I.: Mount Lofty Ranges, Adelaide Hills
Vintage: 2010
Colour: copper red
Alcohol: 14.0%
Bouquet: Crushed raspberry and stems with the smallest hint of soaked stable wood
Flavour: A big (new world?) style of Pinot with a sticky, almost marmite residual in the mouth with some light tannin to finish and thick, stewed sour cherry conserve flavours. A big mouthful which is enjoyable but not particularly elegant
Points: 85 (3+7+11+7+7+50)
Notes: This is an unusually big style of Pinot that I would not probably guess in a blind tasting. Even so, it remains very satisfying.
