  April 4, 2020 - Nose: Rose, menthol, violets. Somewhat subdued, but quite nice.
  Palette: Very rich.
  Menthol, cherry with sour pip, black fruit, creamy cinnamon finish.
  Still greenish tannin finish which detracts from the wine. I was hoping that had gone by now.
  Still quite hot due to the alcohol level which also detracts from the wine.
  Good, but not great.

  July 4, 2017 - This is a rare wine of very good quality.
  A cool vintage from the Clay Creek block owned by Fred Osmond.
  30 year old vines sourced from Coonawarra.
  The nose.
  Earth/fruit/oak and some kind of perfume I can't recognise , maybe talc or roses (err that would have to be Pope John Paul the second) because roses in general aren't highly perfumed ,but this one is.
  On the tongue a nice balance of fruit and oak a little tannin a nice lingering finish, no discernible alcohol crushing the flavours.
  I usually don't like Pinot Noirs from the Hunter or from SA .
  But this one has a bit of depth and character and I reckon it has at least another two years in it even though I think it is drinking at it's peak.
  
  Austrian Wine Challenge (AWC) Vienna.
  
  SILVER MEDAL: 2012 Pirramimma White Label Osmond Dry Grown Pinot Noir
  
  February 2020
  
  Well, it's a year past my drink latest and it's holding up well
  A little yeast on the nose and then a mix of alcohol and something else.
  
  .Still okay, the fruit is still there and a little acid and tannin.
