Finally!

My first post since October 2008. Life is busy.
Work takes up an inordinate amount of time.
Preparation for the minutiae of daily stuff.
Shopping,
Meals for the family,
Clothes, gear and food for work and pre work fitness sessions,
The boys afternoon football training and Sunday matches.

Relax a moment, drink some wine, write a note.
Post it.

Not lately!

A new post.
A new blog layout.

BOCHARA PINOT NOIR 2004

I have posted tasting notes for this wine here previously. It is a wine worth revisiting.
This wine was a find and a bargain. First tasted at the cellar door. It is rich and flavoursome and very moreish.
My previous notes are on the money. Liqueur cherry, cinnamon and cloves, quite sweet in a fruit sense. If anything the wine seems to be almost unchanged, undeveloped and a little hedonistic. It possibly lacks a little in structure, but I am willing to forgive this for the pure pleasure of drinking it.


Tasted: July 2009
Source: Cellar door
Price: $20 (2006)
Drink: Now - 2012
Score: 92


I just tried to access the Bochara website and it is not to be found. Hopefully this is not an ill wind in these times.
