Petaluma White Label Pinot Noir 2013

But I think this is ordinary. It shows the difficulty of making balanced Pinot in the Adelaide Hills (in a warm vintage). with a combination of both overripe, hard fruit and minty edges (suggesting mixed ripeness), all topped off with hard acid and noticeably warm alcohol.

An ungainly wine that is genuinely tough going.
