Drank well, we had this with a 2008, 09 and 10 Meredith Estate Verical. It had a full red fruit nose, cherry and herb notes. Taste took 20-30 minutes to open up, but was smooth and great red fruit taste, this one was the lightest of the vertical, finish was balanced and long.

Light+ mahogany red. Distinct forest fruits, hedgerow fruits, wild strawberry, raspberry and surprisingly youthful aromas for an 11 yr old wine. The palate has a lovely sinew and freshness to it, with plenty of redcurrants, rich strawberry compote, a hint of cherry cola. A well made, smart wine that developed nicely in the glass; the spicy oak is well integrated, clearly a modern style that has gracefully aged lending a sweetness yet also a savoury twist. Plushly textured on the mid-palate and as opens milk chocolate and a super smooth finish.

May have been a little past it’s prime, but this 2008 Meredith Pinot is still very good.
