Bright ruby with a violet tinge, the 2006 Bald Hills “Single Vineyard” Pinot Noir displays an enticing bouquet dark fruits, mixed spice and rose florals. The wine is rich and dense on the palate with tannins supporting vibrant fruit through the finish. A very complex and exciting Pinot Noir that will age superbly.
The 2005 was the winner of Decanter’s International medal for Best Pinot, and the 2006 looks set to follow in its illustrious footsteps!
