Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Medium ruby in the glass. Gently spicy, sun-kissed nose of ripe cherry, strawberry, dried gerbs, and cinnamon stick. Dry, medium bodied and sweetly fruity, with a ribbon of bright acidity for balance. Nice, medium-long finish. A robust yet very poised Pinot. My note: Sweetly ripe cherry fruit and succulent raspberries. Medium- to bodied and silky smooth. Good value for the price point: you just can’t argue with this wine. Food matches: grilled steak, ratatouille, salmon steaks topped with berry compote.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Ryan Hindmarsh rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review: Do you Speak-a my language? This wine comes from a land down under, where women glow and men drink Pinot. It’s a nice, inexpensive sipping Pinot Noir. Grab your best mate and plunder this down while BBQing. Finish it before the food is ready, or smile and pour it with a Vegemite Sandwich.
