Add this Balgownie Estate Macedon Ranges Pinot to the 'bigger style' list. The first Pinot from that region for this producer from what I'm aware, density is the word.
Generous plums and blackcurrant get to work early. Laced with fine spices that edge on Christmas cake spices, black earth and licorice muse through the mouth. It's a wine that just keeps giving and leaves you with a sense that you just want more. That weight certainly has a gravitating pull. Unfined and unfiltered, let it breathe to see it at its best.
Note, the image above is of the Yarra Valley Pinot but the bottle is the same - you get the gist.
