Yarra Valley, Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia
Was expecting more freshness and balance from Yarra Valley. I got overripe fruit. Mehhh.

Typical new world Pinot. Fruit forward, res fruit mostly, strawberries and raspberries. Tannins were full of finesse. The colour was bright red, and the wine was clear. Alcohol was a little high. Good length, no tertiary notes to speak of that would indicate an aging potential. Acidity was lower than in, say, Burgundy, but the finesse of the tannins made for a wine that was still elegant and balanced. I liked it! Also, the price point makes it desirable as well.
