A splash of Mourvedre lends an extra kick in the mid-palate. The Biker has blackberry, anise spice and vanilla on the nose. Rich, black fruit and spice, lingering to a silky vanilla oak finish.

Drink now through 2013. 5,213 cases made. -James Molesworth Our Pinot noir is not overtly fruity, soft and "sweet" and it generally shows hints of that alluring "primal" character along with a dark, spicy, complex primary fruit perfume. -Hannes Storm A particularly good winter chill ensured more even bud-break than usual and apart from a couple of strong winds in November, wind speeds were lower than average and conditions at flowering excellent. Humidity was higher than usual in January requiring vigilance to ward off disease. While January was warmer than average a" contributing to a harvest one week earlier than normal, February and March were cooler than usual. Overall 2007 was a cool year versus our long-term average. Ripening was particularly even and fruit quality excellent. Not just a Pinot noir, but a classic, origin expressive wine, Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot noir is different to most New World Pinot noirs. Our low-vigour, stony, clay-rich soil, cool maritime mesoclimate, naturally tiny yields of around 35 hl/ha and our philosophy of expressing our terroir in our wines a" give rise to a certain tightness, tannin line and elevated length to balance the richness and generosity of our Pinot noir. Our Pinot noir is not overtly fruity, soft and "sweet" and it generally shows hints of that alluring "primal" character along with a dark, spicy, complex fruit perfume. For this reason, many knowledgeable enthusiasts around the world regard Hamilton Russell Vineyards as the best "Pinot noir" in South Africa and one of the best in the New World.

Long, multi-faceted finish, the HR Pinot is quietly getting better and better. Drink now through 2013." 93 Points Wine Spectator "Moderately saturated medium red. Complex, highly aromatic nose combines vibrant red berries, incense, cherry, flowers, spices, and a note of eucalyptus. Juicy and very intense but magically light on its feet; the pungent red berry and pepper flavors spread out to coat the palate without any impression of weight . This soil-driven wine is extremely young and should put on weight with four or five years of cellaring. Very distinctive and stylish pinot with fine-grained tannins and terrific finishing energy and perfume. " 91 Points International Wine Cellar

California Wine Club
Are California wines really all that special? That was the question posed in 1978 at a fateful San Francisco blind tasting event where a Stag's Leap Cabernet won top honors over many of France's most respected Premier Crus. The result was great news for California winemakers, but a huge upset for French wine makers, who had long been considered to produce superior wine. Now it's your turn to discover the many world-class wines coming from California. Each month you will receive two bottles of wine from the many distinct wine growing regions of California, each wine providing a taste of the varietal, and the unique terroir of the region. At WineGlobe, we have a very simple system for selecting wine club wines. We taste them, talk about them, and evaluate them. We look for excellent quality, varietal correctness, and uniqueness. Many of our wine club wines are from small producers who are fanatical about the quality of their grapes and the quality of their wines. WineGlobe invites you to see what all of the California fuss is about.
