Pinot Noir 2006
Price: $15.95/750ml
Wine Description:
The medium ruby garnet colour that is so typical of cool climate Pinot Noirs, nose of raisins and
cherries, with vanilla and spices from the oak, and one other intriguing Pinot trait - earthy
barnyard notes. In the mouth this wine flows like satin, tastes of plum jam, cherry liqueur,
vanilla, nutmeg and tea leaves.
Suggested Food Accompaniments:
Duck breast with wild mushroom risotto, truffle scented meat dishes, and medium soft cheeses.
