2001 Bannockburn Pinot Noir

Yet another excellent Pinot from GARRY FARR (pictured left).
Bright crimson mauve colour, with mauve hue. Medium body. The nose displays complexity, with layers of spice, dark cherry and game. The palate is mouthfilling, with flavours of plum, spice and cherry emerging over a spicy oak background. Excellent length, with fine grained tannins, perfect balance followed by a long aftertaste of spicy oak and dark cherry with just a touch of stalkiness emerging.
