De Bortoli 2011 Estate Pinot Noir, Yarra Valley VIC

Quite possibly the best Pinot I've tasted this year and there have been a few. Smokey, funky forest floor on the nose, leads into a lean meaty, stalky strawberry laden palette challenging sensation. This wine ticked all the box's for me and reinforces the superiority of De Bortoli Pinot in this country.
