winemaker's notes:

Number 63 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007!

Maturations was initially on light lees in new and seasoned French oak, then racked and returned to oak for extended oak maturation.

The color is garnet red with purple tinges. The bouquet displays cherry, plum and spice, enhanced by subtle oak. The palate possess rich and savory berry fruits, enhanced by velvet-like tannins and a lingering mid-palate texture. Medium term cellaring for 2-4 years will add complexity and enhance mouth feel.

I would buy this wine again
Nice Pinots are coming out of Aussie and NZ! We have been drinking a lot of wine from Sticks. The winemaker does a great job of highlighting the fruit in each varietal. This Pinot is a fine example of the "no frills" approach.

A Customer - Dover, Delaware USA
My first impression of this wine was that of raisins forward. It's softness reminded me of a Rioja. As it opened, I really started to enjoy this wine. Somewhere in the middle palate, I detected layers of tangerine, and berry fruits. A lovely wine. I will be featuring this wine in an all Australian wine dinner on Feb. 7th. Thank you for a lovely wine! Helene Scholler-Altevogt

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
