Bit of Nomads love from the Young Gun of Wine Cru, with their feature on Australia's Best Pinot Meunier. About half the price of the others in the running too, just quietly.
...“I can only describe it as a sommelier’s dream to sell as it contains all the buzz words we like to use!” began Jensen. “It’s bright and lifted on the nose, it’s got great length on the palate. Sour red cherries, raspberry and rhubarb, framed by soft silky tannins. Out of all the meunier I tasted today, this would be my favourite food wine, especially with duck.” “A wonderfully savoury nose of forest floor, mushrooms, cranberry, and a subtle hint of spice, noted Darling. “The palate shows leather, ash, raspberry bush and a masterful use of stem giving spice to the palate that is balanced perfectly as part of the overall experience in the glass. It’s so easy for this character to become overpowering or stick out in the glass but it is crafted well in this wine and is in perfect harmony with fruit, tannin and acid. There is a lot of finesse in this wine.
