Reviews and Ratings

Erin De Santiago rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Yering Station Wines from Australia's Yarra Valley are consistently good offerings and the 2008 Little Yering Pinor Noir does not disappoint. Australian Wine Expert, James Halliday rated this a 90.

The wine displays strong cherry and strawberry notes, yet it is still quite light-bodied. The finish is a bit tangy, an unexpected characteristic in a Pinot Noir. A solid choice, especially at the price point.
Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Great little Pinot for sub-$15. Nice cherry and raspberry core and great acidity. Uncomplicated, a great pairing with grilled salmon or duck. 86 Points. (ottawawinejournal.com)
Bright hue; while light-bodied, has a complex array of aromas and flavours, the palate offering red fruits and a contrasting touch of quasi-citrus, giving a tangy finish. Score: 90 Source: James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
