Box Stallion, The Enclosure Pinot Noir 2006, Mornington Peninsula ($25ish)

The thing about pinot noir is that your always want the Holy Grail - the perfect wine - and it is only pinot that can give that religious ectasy. near perfection is tolerable. But what about serviceable? No, not really. This wine is serviceable, red cherry being the main thing going on here on the nose and palate. the winer is correct. But it is pinot and it does not rock.
