June 30, 2018 - Char, tar, black fruits, there's no mistaking where this pinot is from. Pop 'n pour, a more aggressive style but approachable now. First half with a salmon dish, second half the night after with burgers and burgers was definitely the better match. The wine has a darker cherry coloring in the class, opaque and firm. tannins resolved, but there's structure. Black cherry leads. A pinot for cab drinkers. Plenty of time on this one.

July 3, 2017 - NobleRottersSydney - Otago Pinot (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {screwcap, 14%} (Gordon) Something of a bruiser even after the 2014, this a black-tinged fruit, subtle oak, medium/high dusty tannins, medium acid. It’s assertive and tough on the palate – a bit of a bruiser. Even tastes a bit meaty. Sits more on the front palate that the 14 and seems weightier overall; has a dry medium length finish. Time might help – I wouldn’t be sure. Hefty wines from Otago for those who miss their shiraz!
