FW: Very nice, fruity nose, long finish. Wouldn't keep it much longer. NW: I'm tired. I like this. Can we get more? Well balanced and very drinkable, lovely. ZAW: Dark plum, late harvest, talking crap never mind.

Medium ruby color. Very expressive nose with plum, black cherries, violets and leather. Has purity of fruit which is very sweet. Palate has a nice texture, high-ish acidity and decent finish. A Pinot at a medium stage of development where no complain can be held against it...

Red / brown colour. Nice nose of forest floor, mushroom and cherry. Similar taste - nice balance with good acid. Drinking beautifully with medium to long finish. Very enjoyable.

Pretty good pinot but a bit expensive when compared to other Australian competition. Very plummy, with cherries and a hint or strawberry and spice. Quite mouthfilling with reasonable length. Drinking OK now. Not something I'd want to keep long term.

Ruby. Fantastic purity of strawberry, cherry and raspberry fruit. Mid-bodied with ultra-silky tanins, freshness and high acidity. Relatively short aftertaste. A fruit-driven, very enjoyable but rather simple Pinot Noir. Somewhat pricey for what it is.

a decent bottle of simple Aussie Pinot, pale ruby colour, light to medium body with pleasant cherry and strawberry nose. medium to high acidity. A nice wine. Not fabby but there are a couple of similar quality pinot at cheaper price level
