Pinot Noir by Hop Nation from two sites, one in the Mornington Peninsula, the other Echuca..... Yes, that Echuca. At first, before tasting I was horrified. Alas, this wine has given me a lesson in humility and not judging a book by it's terroir. Love a mixed metaphor and well, that's appropriate given this wine's outward appearances. It looks like naughty fun party juice picnic grog. It's anything but. Savouriness is the theme here; green herbs & twigs, a bunch of cherry stem and a little plum on the nose. The palate is fine, dry, grippy & really well put together. A little charcuterie action joins the herby party. It's delicious, and a little quirky.
$29.00 per bottle. $26.68 each in any dozen or more wines. Mixed or straight.
