Charmian Smith, ODT, 4/5 stars
2011 PINOT NOIR
A lively, spicy young wine with attractive berry/cherry fruit, a creamy, slightly biscuity undertone, savoury nuances and a well-structured, lively finish. It will integrate and mellow with a year or so's bottle age.

Medium garnet in color, this wine smells of forest berries and forest floor. In the mouth gorgeously smooth forest berry flavors mix with a wonderful earthiness. Excellent acidity keeps the wine bright and fresh, and the powdery tannins that grip the palate are smooth and supple and allow the generous, stony fruit to shine. 9-9.5/10
