Port Phillip Estate
2008 Port Phillip Estate Pinot Noir
The November opening of the multi-million dollar winery, restaurant and cellar door was a landmark event; happily, the wines are of commensurately high quality. Rich plum and cherry fruit on the bouquet appears first on the palate, followed by spicy, savoury tannins that give length and authority. 96 pts
The Weekend Australia Magazine, November 14-15, 2009- James Halliday's Top 100
Typical dark colour here and a vibrant, ripe dark cherry fruit nose that also pins it up on the Red Hill stretch of the Mornington, some cassis and gentle spice too. The palate has a juicy elemental cherry flavour, gently grippy tannin and chirpy, upbeat acidity. Wine 100, October 2009 Nick Stock
