Sample Tasting Notes:

 

Kathy Lynskey Pinot Noir 2004

This 2004 Block 36 Reserve Pinot Noir is bright crimson in colour with lifted black cherry and spicy aromas of clove and tobacco. The palate is well balanced with fine grained tannins and displays flavours of cherry, wild game, cedar and thyme. As this wine ages the tannins will soften and integrate with the fruit and spice, creating a complex elegant Pinot Noir which is expected to cellar well for at least 6-8 years.


Kathy Lynskey Sauvingon Blanc Vineyard Select 2005

This 2005 vintage has a wonderful bouquet of mineral, gooseberry and tropical fruit aromas. Focused flavours of passionfruit, lemon-lime citrus, ripe gooseberry and yellow bell pepper give way to a well balanced acidity. This is an elegant, fruit forward style of Sauvignon Blanc which has a long, clean finish.
