Red Hill Estate Pinot Noir 2008 - Mornington Penninsula

Caught up with a girlfriend for a few glasses of wine on friday night at Radio Bar on Gertrude St Fitzroy.

We ordered a bottle of the Red Hill Estate Pinot Noir. It was a bright burgundy colour unlike most pinots, however it was still quite light with rich cherry and spice flavours. These were complemented by a subtle hint of oak. On the nose it was sweet and slightly floral.

Overall, nice drop for a friday night, would go well with a mild or creamy cheese.

  1. Cheers for the note. I've seen this bottle kicking around for the very cheap price of around $16 and thought, hmm, could it be?

  2. Yep, gotta love those unexpected cheap drops! A friend of mine has been to the winery as well and had all good things to say about it.
