The 2007 Pinot Noir Flat Block Estate has a splendid, sexy aromatic array of sandalwood, incense, earth and floral notes, and assorted red fruits. Layered on the palate, it has outstanding grip, savory fruit, and a lengthy, pure finish. It will drink well from 2011 to 2019.
Bethel Heights has turned in a solid performance with their 2007 Pinot Noirs.
