October 23, 2010 - Wonderful wine, even better than the last bottle opened in 2009, still sweet fruited it flowed across the palate with lovely weight and balance, good depth of colour and a wonderful pinot nose, will be treasuring the last bottle in the cellar

February 10, 2010 - Had with appetizers before dinner at friends house. Good nose, but a little light upon opening. Tasted more like a California Pinot than anyhting else. Second glass was much more opened and softer. Good fruit and light mineral tones.

July 14, 2008 - Wonderful with venison, cherries and plum on nose and palate, firm tannins, nice weight, I savoured every mouthful. It was better the next day, softer, it had opened out and flowed across the palate. Looking forward to opening the next bottle
