2004 Curlewis Reserve Pinot Noir

Considerably dark red in colour for a Pinot , the nose has smokey , dusty plum and cloves with coffee oak influences that are as complex as they are different.

The palate is multilayered with earthy stem like complexity , edgy dark cherry, spiced stem and lovely acidity , the wine finishes with olive and excellent length.

Curlewis , By Farr and Bannockburn are producing some of the best Pinots in Australia from the greater Geelong regions of Bannockburn and Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria with earthiness, complexity and a sense of place evident in all the wines.
