Domain Phillip Jones Classic Pinot Noir 2001

Another wine from Bass Phillip, this time quite an aged pinot from fruit sourced in the Mornington Peninsula. The bouquet held an array of sour cherry, strawberry, sweet musk, honey, minerals and some earthy notes. On the palate quite rich berry fruits, with a little rustic earth and sap underneath. Quite a lot of length in the finish, and I did feel the acidity a little overdone. Overall a relatively complex and finely crafted wine, with a rustic feel. Not sure it would cellar that much further.
50+4+13+17+8 = 92/100
