2018 Yabby Lake Block 5 Pinot Noir Magnum 1.5L, Mornington Peninsula

Deep red colour with a tint of purple; the bouquet is shy, reserved and plain. A relatively straight up-and-down style of pinot. Very good depth and fruit concentration. The tannins are firm and the flavours are bold, primary and unevolved. More time is needed to bring out the complexities. 25 MAR 2020 Drink 2021–2032
