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.

June 2021....it was ok and had toned down no doubt over time. The flavour of this wine is so different and unusual. Was a novelty at first but quite honestly has worn off on me. Don't buy again.

return'd 2
2021 + summer 2022
January 2021.....had with chicken salad and quinoa salad....nice, better than the Adamo, but a light gamay noir not my cup of tea....I prefer more mid-weight and perhaps more fruit. There is a sharpness to GN that doesn't much appeal to me. Only ever meant to buy 2 bottles, so wont keep the second 2 after this initial taste. Drink second one summer of 2022.
May 2023....what a difference a couple of years can make! No sharpness, was smooth and flavourful (cherry). Quite enjoyed with both chicken and pork meals. Highly drinkable and enjoyable! (90+)

Pirramimma Katunga Gts 2007, Mclaren Vale, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$24.95
2016+2017 (18 latest)
April 2016...still not enjoying this style of wine much anymore, too alcholic (14.5) and sweet (typical Aussie). First glass ok but got tired of it with 2cd. Ok to gift remaining bottle.
?? Think I may have had the second bottle in 2017/18 and pretty sure I enjoyed it more than the first, perhaps had mellowed further.
