  • 2009 Bass Phillip Pinot Noir Premium 92 Points

    Australia, Victoria, Gippsland

    Very sweet ripe raspberries on the nose. The sweetness comes through on the palate as well with ripe red fruits, prunes and raisins. Quite special in its own way.

  • 2006 Domaine Serene Pinot Noir Monogram 90 Points

    USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley

    Smells like candy floss or nougat. Don't seem to get much red fruit on it, but it has a unique taste of its own which I can't quite identify with. Some greenness on the back palate. Classy yet mysterious.

  • 2007 Gerhard Markowitsch Pinot Noir Reserve 88 Points

    Austria, Niederösterreich, Carnuntum

    Non-expressive nose, a hint of rustiness. Green apples coupled with unripened red fruits. Doesn't have a finish that lasts.

  • 2007 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche 92 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, La Tâche Grand Cru

    Ginseng root, herby and vegetal nose. Also on the palate, a lot of vegetal notes, green apples, roots, bitter herbal medicine finish. Somehow I'm attracted to this , like it was deliberately made to this way. The finish feels like after eating an apple.

  • 2007 Felton Road Pinot Noir Block 3 94 Points

    New Zealand, South Island, Otago, Central Otago

    Perfume and dried raspberry nose, luscious red fruit, I can feel a lot of perfume and flowers, balance of sweetness of fruit and alcohol and structured so elegantly. Finishes strongly for me. Feminine on the start but packs a punch on the finish. A girl with a bite. Very lovely.
