Rosemount Estate Pinot Noir 2004

The next bottle in my quest for a good, cheap Pinot Noir comes from down under.  The Rosemount Estate “Diamond Label” Pinot Noir 2004.  For some reason I wasn’t expecting much from this one, but I was pleasantly surprised.  I’m not sure why I was suspect of this bottle, but I guess it was the packaging—which is a little ho hum.  It also has a lip around the mouth of the bottle and for some reason I always expect wine in lipped bottles to be crap.

Rosemount Estate Pinot NoirDon’t judge a book by its cover.

I know I’ve been a sucker in the past for some nasty wine wrapped in a cool label.  So it’s only fair that every now and then I should get some nice wine with a lame label.

The Rosemount Estate Pinot Noir is a bit more fruity than other Pinots I’ve had.  It’s mostly strawberry and cherry flavors with a bit of plum.  The tannis are smooth and it has a medium finish.  It’s a very drinkable wine and only $9.

It amazes me every time I get a bargain wine from Australia.  How can they ship wine so far and still sell it so cheaply?

  1. I brought this wine to a pinot noir blind tasting party. It was a favorite of the guests. I have stocked up! Thank you for the recommendation!
