April 29, 2024 - Superb wine. Beautiful dark cherry with fine acidity. Love lovely length and very enjoyable on the palate. Should last another few years but no need to wait.

Wozza Likes this wine: 94 points
April 1, 2016 - A perfumed and peppery 94/100 (4.0/5.0) from me. This Pinot hails from the steep, close planted Lucinda Estate, Gippsland and a warm 2013 vintage, where 150 dozen were made. Halliday gave it 97 noting "a rose garden with a profusion of red fruits, silky tannins and all the length of a great Pinot".
The nose, it's best feature, has rose petals, cranberries, red currants, strawberries and cream, mulberries and white pepper. The pure palate follows those flavours, with a warm peppery lift and strong acid line mid-palate, leaving cranberries, mulberries, cream and pepper lingering delicately afterwards.
At $39 from MyCellars.com.au and Cellar Door (both sold out), it's probably fair for a JH 97 point Pinot. Much better than my first bottle 4 months ago, but not one I am going to add to the illustrious wish list.
