Does the quality of the Pinot depend on the wine-maker or
the vineyard?
Ocean 8 Pinot Noir 2010
Pristine flavour delivered with an undergrowth feeling that
oozes out. It isn’t a funky dirty wine as it possesses plenty of fruit flavour
but it does have an extra something lurking.
The profile is sour with some smoky fennel flavours finishing everything
off. The flavours that came to mind were sour cherries and the essence of raspberries
with a bright core of acidity running through the middle of my palate. Drink
now? Yes but will develop nicely in the bottle.
