This is the 2010, and it's a very pretty pinot. Color is light with a bit of salmon color and more of a translucent garnet. Nose has red fruit, white pepper, baking spices, sweet cherry, and smoke. Palate is nicely balanced with pronounced-but-very fine grained tannins. More red fruit, sweet spices, and vanilla come through on the palate. Finish isn't intense, but it is very pretty and actually it is long. With the right white-flesh fish, this would be an outstanding, talk-about-it-the-next-time wine. — 10 years ago
Somewhat of a cult Pinot in Tassie. Home Hill wins many trophies on the Show circuit. Very aromatic nose - a touch sooty. Medium
Weight palate quite long. Noticeable acid at finish. Good. 17+. — 11 years ago
Yum yum yum. Vibrant, natural, gulpable, grape juice. Sour red fruit, walnuts, herbs. Drank over lots of discussion of mouseyness, and thought I detected some after opened for a while, but I could have just been drunk and imagining things. — 10 years ago

Taking on some fun richness.
Not going to open my next one for another 5 years. Big baby. — 11 years ago
Garnet red with some browning on the edges. Nose was definitely tight to start, with a couple hours of air it changes from chalky and savory to some dark berries. Kind of all mixed together. Cassis and blackberries in the attack with some earthy and vegetal undertones. Moderate tannins (6.5/10) and a moderate body. Slightly furry moderate plus finish. Drink till 2019. — 10 years ago
Nice bottle. Tobacco notes open up to lovely delicate red fruit. Cherry, strawberry. Perhaps a touch heavy on the alcohol. Great acid. — 10 years ago

Some lemon, tropical fruit perhaps, good burst of acidity and some oak spiciness on the finish. Nice wine — 9 years ago
