Ten Minutes By Tractor, Estate, Mornington Peninsula, Victoria, 2011

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Less pale than almost all of its 2011 Mornington Peninsula peers. Satisfactory raspberry fruit on the nose and the palate. It’s soft-contoured and a little acidic towards the end, but overall this is one of the best balanced and fleshiest of a generally fleshless crowd. As with all, though, drink as soon as you can.

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Savoury on nose, follows through on palate. A very gentle wine, giving a lovely balance between fruit and savoury.

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Strawberries and vanilla, very delicate perfumed nose. Elegant and light with velvety palate and long, velvety aftertaste.
