Mandala Pinot Noir 2011
Style: Light-bodied Red.
Region: Yarra Valley
Country: Australia
Tasting note: This wine is from a tough year in Yarra Valley; it was wet and cold, which is why this wine is so light in colour. It has a bright, lifted cherry nose with just a touch of spice. There is more where this came from on the palate with strawberry tones complementing the sour cherry. Simple yet enjoyable.
Final Say: If you’re looking for a great, everyday Pinot Noir then this wine is for you. $19.99 a bottle.
Score: 15.5 out of 20
