Including cherry and strawberry. There are underlying spicy characters that give added complexity. Vintage Conditions A warm dry growing season enabled Pinot Noir grapes to reach optimal maturity. Blend: Pinot Noir 13% Region: Victoria Cellaring Potential: 2 years of cellaring Awards/Trophies: 92 points "Made at the Yarra Valley winery, using the techniques employed for top end pinots, making its price all the more remarkable. Brilliantly clear colour and fragrant cherry aromas point to the fresh and bright cherry and plum varietal fruit on the light to medium-bodied palate. Simple but delicious." James Halliday, Top 100, The Weekend Australian, November 2008
