Despite the other tasting notes, this is definitely not from Bendigo.
My favourite Australian pinot, and very hard to find. The fruit normally goes into Sallinger sparkler. A clear meniscus with bricking starting to appear around the edges, beautiful limpid colour in the centre. Beautiful floral nose, no barnyard or undergrowth here. Medium weight with a lovely strand of acidity running from front to back. Not much attack, all the flavour is in the mid a back palate. Excellent length, well focused, easily up to Premier Cru quality.
Such a pity it's so hard to find!
