"Aussie pinot noir works well at this time of year as winter’s hearty fare gives way to spring's first dishes. It may lack the velvety, damson plum Burgundian breed and elegance that the Kiwis achieve so effortlessly, but when young, it oozes with a gentle, strawberry spice of its own…the spicy 2006 Pirie South Pinot Noir From Tasmania, do it for me"
