I had the pleasure of sampling several Jacob’s Creek Reserve wines at a recent tasting and the 2009 Jacob’s Creek Reserve Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir was among them.
I’m a huge fan of Pinot Noirs and enjoy Australian Pinots so was looking forward to trying this one.
In the glass, the wine is ruby and appears to be of medium weight.
On the nose, it’s typical Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir – bright cherry, ripe strawberry with notes of oak. A bouquet that’s right up my alley.
On the palate, this Australian Pinot Noir is lively with ripe berries, touches of clove and nutmeg with oaky notes. Light tannins are displayed on the long finish.
An affordable addition to one’s cellar.
Around $13.
