2004 Paringa Estate Reserve Pinot Noir

Winery of the Year
- James Halliday - 2007 Australian Wine Companion

A very impressive Pinot. Very deep crimson colour with deep mauve hue, showing excellent Pinot colour. Superb lifted nose of spice, raspberry, strawberry and black cherry followed by cloves and a touch of game. Mouthfilling palate with excellent power wave. Flavours of raspberry, confectionary, spice and cloves. Very spicy back palate. Fine grained, slightly dusty tannins. Very long aftertaste of spice, strawberry and game.
Cellar 4-5 years (2010-2011)
Alc/Vol: 14.9%

Shows all the characteristics of Paringa, but with an extra degree of intensity and length; outstanding wine; the third Barrel Selection Release.
