This is a classic Gippsland Pinot Noir, it has texture, bright clean fruit and great balance.

The pinot for shiraz drinkers. It's richly flavoured, spicy, meaty and very savoury with firm tannins supporting the full-bodied palate. Some fruit sweetness pops out midway and that's a good thing. Solid drinking.
