November 27, 2017 - MNB: OZ, ZA, NZ (Home (Noe st)): (non-blind, my wine)
Pale ruby color. Wild overripe faded bing cherry nose, with some overripe peach, overripe cherry, and slight reductive fruit (faint hint of very sweet ham). Also a bit of rubbery top reduction.
Dry, medium body, 13.5% alcohol (actually 12.5%), medium plus acid (has a sour aftertaste - possibly acidified), medium minus tannins - tissue papery, soft. Lighter fruit on the palate than on the nose - white cherry, ripe peach, ripe nectarine, ripe plum. No overt oak
Softer and less acidic than Otago - fleshier. Pretty good! -

October 12, 2017 - This is delightful; very low in alcohol but quite durable - drank it over more days and it became better and better.
Rather restrained fruit which develop with time in the glass. Lots of red berries. -

August 9, 2017 - Lys transparent rød. Lett parfymert og umiskjennelig pinot aroma med preg av røde bær og kirsebær. I munn har den medium fylde og ok syre. Lett og saftig munnfølelse og en ikke alt for lang avslutning. Ble alt for lett match til grillede andelår. God Aussie pinot noir i forhold til pris.
