Thomas & Thomas Pinot Noir 2004, Adelaide Hills ($15)

For a moment I was getting my hopes up. Was I about to find my Holy Grail?....a nice pinot noir for under $20. If any region was going to deliver the goods it was going to be either Geelong or Adelaide Hills. And again I find my hopes dashed. You see, there is nothing wrong with this wine, but 12 hours after drinking some it it I can't remember anything that distinguishes it either. Slightly sour and fuller bodied than many Aussie pinots it was balanced and ....er....that's all can be written about it. Not much. No return visit. Next.
