Stonier Reserve Pinot Noir 2005
By Gary Walsh
It’s hot in the city, hot in the city tonight…..so a pinot is ideal. Much cooler than wearing tight black leather pants..that’s for sure.
Aromas of cherry, redcurrant jelly, bark and spicy French oak. On the palate a lighter bodied style with redcurrant, raspberry conserve, spice and earthy leaf litter flavours. Nice and fresh with firm fine grained but rather assertive tannins. Good finish. This looks a bit unevolved at the moment, even a little dilute, but I think it should build up with time in bottle.
