There are many bargains on the Aldi Australia wine shelves; this is one of them.
It’s an uncomplicated, ripe, raspberried Kiwi Pinot of smooth fruit, smooth lines and easy flow. It’s not complex or long, but it is very drinkable. Ripe, candied raspberry and cherry fruit with a little mushroomy Pinosity, even a Central Otago gloss through the middle. It’s perhaps a bit light on the finish, but cherried, varietal, and shitloads better than any other $17.99 Central Otago Pinot anywhere.
