Appealing and a joy to drink. More fruit forward than most other Hoddles Pinot vintages, at least to my recollection. Strawberry, cherry, touch of blackberry. Twiggyness and some green herbs. Smattering of grainy tannin. Ample length. Touch and go for 93.

Violent decant. Light-medium crimson. Restrained dark red fruits. Ditto palate. Phenolics quite high. Has lots of rough edges of youth. Needs 3 years to settle down. Should then be beginning to be a lovely pinot.
