Paternoster Estate, Premium Pinot Noir 2001, Blue Dandenongs ($45)

Paternoster is couched in the Dandenongs on a steep slope. So I was hoping this was good pinot country - cool winds and lots of sunlight. This wine was quite full bodied by pinot standards with interesting spicy notes. However is was the sultana notes that dominated and simply left one dissatisfied. Maybe the grapes were overripe. A profound disappointment.
