Stonier Wines 2011 Pinot Noir

Variety: Pinot Noir
Region/GI: Port Phillip, Mornington Peninsula
Vintage:  2011
Colour: A lighter shade of purple
Alcohol: 13.0%
Bouquet: Fruitier style with faint aromas of stewed plums 
Flavour: Lacklustre and somewhat confirming my trepidation with Pinot from this over-rated region for Pinot in Australia. No real ooomph. Some fruit according to the nose for sure and smooth but not much else
Points: 80 (3+6+9+6+6+50)
Notes:  Ok, going on memory from Xmas eve but 80 seems about right. $20 (~ 360 Kc). I've had better.
