Katnook Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2011, Coonawarra

now 2019

Nov/21....woulds have had this back in 2019. Recollection is, was expecting better. Didn't wow me in any way which was disappointing. Australian Cab? Should have had sooner? Who knows, but wouldn't make that purchase again based on this experience.

Yering Station Village Pinot Noir 2015, Yarra Valley

(2)

July 2021....had with salmon melts. First sip seemed harsh, with a distinct flavour and bite, but with food and 15 minutes in the glass, quite enjoyable. Not sure I would buy again. Prefer NZ in this price range. Must have had the first one some time prior but don't remember it.

Cant recall when I drank this wine, but do recall that it was decent and wasn't disappointed with its purchase.

Hitching Post Hometown Pinot Noir 2010, Santa Barbara County

Aug 2020....remember buying several of these. Was decent but I think I grew tired of its flavour after a while. Definitely no more left at this time.

December 2020.....ok, really enjoyed this, more than I might have thought. Had with roasted chicken and was fine. Velvety and flavourful, a little heavy on alcohol but well integrated. An enjoyable glass of wine.
