"This might well be the quaffing pinot of the year. Smashes just about any Bourgogne rouge I‘ve had as well as most new-world pinot. Buy now, drink now."

The Underwood Pinot Noir has aromas of spice, smoke, ripe cherries, and raspberry. The palate is filled with sweet cherry, violets, raspberries, spice and plum notes. This accessible wine is delicious, with fine tannins that come together in a fruit laden finish.

"This Oregon pinot is a blend of 60% Willamette Valley and 40% Umpqua fruit, in 10% new French oak. The generosity of the Oregon 2018 vintage has really smiled on this wine, with a fresh lifted raspberry and strawberry bouquet – enticing. The light to medium-weight colour belies the intensity of the palate, which is elegant, with a mélange of crushed chilled red berries with some darker cherry notes. The flavor is persistent and fragrant in the aftertaste, with lovely tannins to close. This might well be the quaffing pinot of the year. Smashes just about any Bourgogne rouge I‘ve had as well as most new-world pinot. Buy now, drink now." – Frank Wilden, The Australian.
