You would be hard pressed to find a better value for money Pinot, the 1314 release is made in similar style to the Estate wine with definitive whole bunch character (20%), lip smakingly expressive fruit and oak treatment that you rarely find on a wine sub $30.
A youthful light red in colour with a nose of sappy rhubarb and cherry with aromatic oak that gives a touch of wood smoke. The palate is medium to full bodied with well defined and expressed dimensions of fruit, oak and tannin. The finish combines dark cherry with subtle undergrowth and a lingering spice of french oak.
The 1314 is still a well kept secret, it's worth hunting some down
