Rabbit Ranch 2008 Pinot Noir
I believe this wine has the dubious honour of being the first non-Australian wine posted up on the site. I'm not waging my own one-man "All for One Wine" campaign, it is more a reflection on my budget and the fact that in the main buy my own wines.
Typical Central Otago darker style Pinot Noir, think plum coloured as opposed to the raspberry tinged hues of Pinot Noir. But there the similarity ends for me. It is actually lighter in style than colour would depict, very much drink now. Typical red cherry and a smidge of spice on entry, very gentle, fruit driven. No real length to speak of, minimal tannin. Very much a drinker and works well with food.
