98 POINTS - Huon Hooke,
"Deep and brightly youthful purple colour in the glass with a big waft of smoky reduction at first sniff. The wine is rich and concentrated on palate with tremendous depth of ripe cherry fruit flavour and a pleasant backing of fine, dry tannins. There is rich, ripe black fruit underneath the sulfides but it needs airing to bring the fruit aromas out. A great complexity of flavour and bouquet is eventually revealed. The texture is wonderfully sumptuous. An extraordinary pinot of serious weight, depth, perfume and structure. (Chatto family vineyard, Huon Valley)"

Aroma 
A fuller style packed with intense red and black berry fruits and heady spice aromas.

Palate
The long mild days and crisp cool nights of Australia’s most southerly wine region provides the rare coupling of profound intensity with seamless elegance.
