Bass Phillip Pinot Noir 2006

An Australian Pinot Noir from one of the best producers. I’m definitely not happy about Australian wine in general, but this Pinot certainly had it’s qualities. In direct comparison with Burgundy it was perhaps a bit coarse and spicy. Comparable in style with the best California Pinots – but definitely a fine glass of Pinot. A good wine – Must be served quite chilled. (now – 2015) – 88p
