Press ReviewPress

The 2008 Unravelled Pinot Noir has a lifted nose of raspberry and cranberry fruit, with a touch of redcurrant. Good definition, with a subtle smoky note coming through. The palate is medium-bodied, fine tannins, dark plum, raspberry and strawberry with a harmonious, quite elegant finish. Considering this is an entry-level Pinot, this is damn good.
