Indulge yourself
Mac Forbes EB03 One Tonne Woori Pinot Noir, Yarra Valley 2010 $80
An experimental pinot made from a tonne of grapes from Woori Yallock in the Upper Yarra. Excellent full red-purple colour; rich cherry aroma with savoury dusty/earthy and charcuterie overtones. Great elegance in the mouth: soft, balanced and fleshy with powdery tannins and terrific length. A superb drink. Now to 2020. 13 per cent alcohol. 93/100 (Huon's Wine 360)
Food: grilled spice-rubbed chicken
Stockists: Five Way Cellars; Best Cellars
For the cellar
Mac Forbes Hugh Gruyere, Yarra Valley 2010 $56
A very different rendition of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot. The colour is light for cabernet, and the superbly fragrant aroma of red fruits and mulchy, leafy/stemmy smells suggests stalk inclusion. Medium bodied and soft with an appealing lightness of being. Gentle tannins and fine texture. Beautiful balance. Now to 2025. 12.5 per cent alcohol. 95/100 (Huon's Wine 360)
Food: roast lamb
