Bindi Pinot Noir 'Original Vineyard' 2005 --Halliday 96, Tanzer 92 750ml



$69.99
0 available
Not currently in stock.

"Dark red. Sexy raspberry and blackberry scents verge on liqueur-like but are enlivened by bright mineral and floral notes. Lush, creamy and smooth, with sweet dark berry flavors lifted by suave oak spice. Very supple tannins won't get in the way of this wine's immediate appeal but it has the depth to repay a few years of cellaring. Superb length here. 92 pts"  By Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 07

"One of the icons of Macedon. The Chardonnay is top-shelf, the Pinot Noir as remarkable (albeit in a very different idiom) as Bass Phillip, Giaconda or any of the other tiny-production, icon wines. The addition of Heathcote-sourced Shiraz under the Pyrette label confirms Bindi as one of the greatest small producers in Australia. Notwithstanding the tiny production, the wines are exported (in small quantities, of course) to the UK, the US and other major markets."  James Halliday's Wine Companion

"Marginally the best colour of the 3 pinots; similar complexity to Block 5, likewise intensity and length; a lovely mix of red and black fruits; tight finish. 13.5º alc. Rating 96 Drink 2015 Date Tasted Mar 07"  96 pts, James Halliday's Wine Companion
