One Bunch Pinot 2010 Update

We popped a bottle of 2010 Pinot this weekend, just to see how it was travelling. I think we are on track for a mid/late Spring release!  The wine still has a few edges to it, which should at least start rounding off by then, but with a decant, the 2010 smartened up nicely!

Of course being a Tassie wine, theres's plenty of fruit, but I was interested to pick up a bit of bacon in there as well. I hope the gamey, funky character carries through with time.

The wine definitely appreciated being run through a Vinturi. Similarly, we left half the bottle to try the following night, and again this evening, and it has carried itself well. I think decanting the 2010 for up to an hour before drinking will pay dividends.

It will definitely work in restaurants as a 'by the glass' wine.
