Mt Difficulty Pipeclay Terrace Pinot Noir 2005
Harvested over 13 days and spending 14 months in barrel, the fabulous 2005 Pipeclay Terrace Pinot Noir has a more extroverted, vigorous nose than the 2004, perhaps earthier with a touch of cooked meats and dried blood. It displays very good weight on the palate, succulent tannins, more concentration than the 2004 with a seductive, sensuous finish with silky texture. Very focused, lovely cherry, boysenberry and red currant flavours linger long after the wine is ejected. Top-class Pinot Noir that should drink well between 5 and 8 years. – Neal Martin, April 08 View Mt Difficulty Pipeclay Terrace Pinot Noir 2005
