Coldstream Hills Pinot Noir 2003
A sweet perfume of ripe raspberries, cherries, creamy vanilla oak and an underlying spiciness precedes a soft, silky and willowy palate. Backed by some assertive oak, its sweet, juicy flavours of cherries, raspberries and plums offer genuine weight and structure, but finish with an attractive lightness and freshness.

Coldstream Hills
A world class cool climate producer, Coldstream Hills was founded by wine writer James Halliday, who retains an association with this brand that now fits so neatly into Treasury Wine Estates' extensive folio. By any measure it is now a celebrated brand and one of true international standard, releasing wines of seamless balance and harmony. Now having reached its 30th anniversary, it's perhaps time it was given the credit it's due. Winemaker Andrew Fleming now has a green light to explore individual sites, as witnessed by the steadily increasing number of single vineyard wines under this label. Coldstream Hills has the luxury of only releasing Reserve level and single site wines when quality commands it, so is today one of the most dependable makers of Yarra Valley wine with a distinctive smooth, creamy and generously flavoured house style.
