By the glass at the BA lounge, not a fresh bottle by the looks of it. Quite a restrained new world Pinot, dark fruited, roast meat side and happy to see it lacking that overly sweet/ spicy edge that comes with the new world. A touch thin to begin but becomes quite lively with good tannin and long finish. Nice to see it not overdone or over pushed. Must be good value for money too. 89

Pinot Days San Francisco, great and floral nose of black cherry, black currants, and cranberry, same on the palate, medium body, tasty but too short on fruit for me, medium finish.

"2016" Sydney International Wine Show - stewarding notes; 10/11/2015-10/15/2015 (Blue Mountains, NSW): {screwcap, 13.5%} Raspberry and cedar nose. Zesty acid on the palate. Although light/medium-bodied, it’s a bit hard and short, and seems to lack the fruit weight to fill it out. Time may help; it’s very buttoned-up just now. Low dusty tannins precede a short/medium length dry finish. Not a wine of charm; needs cellaring.
