Matured in around 40% new oak, the 2008 PHI Lusatia Park Vineyard Pinot Noir possesses a pale to medium ruby color and aromas of red roses, violets and dark chocolate over warm black cherries, truffles and earth. Well structured with refreshing acidity and a medium level of very finely grained tannins, this Pinot has great intensity and a long finish. Approachable now it should drink better in 12 months and continue to give pleasure over 6 to 7 years. Windy Peak is the name of De Bortoli’s entry level Victoria range, often offering solid, well-made wines of impressive volumes at very good value.Importer: De Bortoli Wines USA Inc.; tel. + 1 201 714 9700; www.debortoli.com.au
