Craig(NZ) wrote:06 Bell Hill Pinot Noir

Quite an amusing performance to get hold of the Bell Hill, so much so the actual drinking of it could be a let down! Since you kiwis all know i am a kind and generous man i may just bring one to the penciled in nz cults offline whenever it may eventuate


I'm now on the mailing list for bell hill and could buy either available pinot vintage (up to 12 of each I think), but I read the price, and then I carefully compared this with my bank balance, and then I bought... no bottles :wink:
Cheers,
Mike

I enjoy your posts and seem to remember you saying your 2010 goal was to drink more Aussie wine……how’s that going for you? :lol:
Maybe you can spend your Bell hill fund on the numerous aussie bargains over there :wink:

07 Craggy Range Le Sol
08 Craggy Range Te Muna Pinot

I thought I was going to get through April buying nothing. But got offered some 08 Bouchards at a good price. Love their white Burgs.
