Pale ruby-purple, the 2012 Weemala Pinot Noir presents aromas of cranberries, red cherries and earth, with a whiff of Provence herbs. Light to medium-bodied, crisp and tart with low levels of chewy tannins, it has a medium finish that is a little lean but nicely balanced with varietal expression. Drink it now to 2015.
