  May 29, 2021 - Pleasant, finely structured wine. Deeper ruby red than usual for a pinot. Hint of spice on nose. Light strawberry that builds to a nice finish of red berries and currents.

  February 26, 2013 - One of my favorites, but we opened the bottle and it was awful at first. I give it a big bump thanks to its straightening itself out with some air and turning into the nice Tasmanian Pinot I have come to expect, but it was hit or miss at first. Later vintages certainly do not live up to their earlier counterparts, but I'd still pick up a few bottles. Perhaps I am just attached - but it remains a "comfort wine" of the last 5 years or so.

  March 11, 2012 - Recent vintages of this wine are not what it once was, but it's still one of my favorite pinots from one of my favorite pinot producing parts of the world. Bright cherry and a nice red color to go with it. Needed to decant this one, so give it some time to open up. Actually improved when I went back for the second half of the bottle the next day. I still recommend it.
