Bass Phillip Pinot Noir The Village Gippsland 2001
Red
Gippsland, Australia
6.4
WineSaint
Silky, mature pinot with gamey, meaty depths and stewed cherry fruit. The palate shows real finesse despite a persistent vegetal streak that cuts through the richness. Contracted fruit, but unmistakably Bass Phillip in its savory complexity and resolved tannins.
