Philip Shaw No. 8 Pinot Noir 2012

It definitely says no. 8...
RRP: $40.00

Not your normal pinot noir. No.8 lingers on the tongue and packs an exquisite fruit punch that you don't expect with a pinot. The honey gold tinge belies the strawberry and cherry taste and hints at the gentle oak that plays in the background.

Enjoy this by itself or with some salmon and cream cheese.  I reckon it goes nicely with a bit of galaxy chocolate, but others disagreed.

Lastly, this gets my vote for its beautiful label.  Definitely one to have in your label collection.
