Bob, in hindsight and upon reading my comment, I didn’t mean to imply that anyone was trying to be misleading in any way, not at all infact. I thought it was interesting the way it was written which I assume comes directly from Seresin. They produce some stunning wines and I would love to try the above Pinot Noirs for myself at some point. I hope my comment hasn’t been misconstrued. It looks like it would be better if I kept my thoughts to myself sometimes

It is inconsistent. Didn’t think too much of it when I was given the figures. You can see from the photo (above) that Sun and Moon Pinot features bottle numbers on the label (the others don’t). As a result they think in bottles when talking about production size. For the sake of consistency I’ve changed the post to 71 cases.

I thought it was strange that the “Home Vineyard 2007 Pinot Noir” and the “Tatou 2007 Pinot Noir” were stated as having 50 cases (i.e. 600 Bottles) and the “Sun & Moon 2007 Pinot Noir” was mentioned as having 850 bottles. The way it is written seems to imply the “Sun & Moon 2007 Pinot Noir” is more exclusive whereas, in fact, the former Pinot’s are produced in lower volumes…

Im afraid so. It joins Martinborough Vineyards (their top wine – “Marie something), Peregrine’s top offering and Amisfield Rocky Knoll in the $100+ club. Can anyone name others?

Hi Bob
Tasted the blended ‘white’ late last year and agree with you wholeheartedly. Brave of them to do it, but it has a place for a person with an open mind!
Clive’s getting serious with Pinot noir, with some good advice of course from the likes of Olly Masters, but yes, Clive’s onto it!
