The David Bowie Pinot Collection
Winery : Various
If pinot were a person, who would it be?
David Bowie
Chameleon-like, always exciting, beguiling, sexy, intelligent, intriguing...
Our pinot collection celebrates the music and style of David Bowie with four matching pinots.
- 3 x 2013 Bass Phillip Estate Pinot Noir: Matched with Space Oddity - One of the earliest, and still one of the best Bowie tunes. We could say the same for Phillip Jones' pioneering and current contribution to the art of pinot making. Bass Phillip's 2013 Estate Pinot embodies the ethereal quality of Bowie's tragically beautiful and compelling Space Oddity. Slipping the earthly bonds of the world to drift, unfettered, to the beyond, our Major Tom will forever be in reverie. A compelling pinot itself, Bass Phillip's Estate is layered and textured, deep and brooding, with dark fruits, a memory of earth and lilting pinot nuances. Transcendental, other-worldly, forever beautiful.
- 3 x 2014 Felton Rd Bannockburn Pinot Noir: Matched with Young Americans - What could be a better pinot partner for the sexy soul groove and silky sax action of the eternally fresh Young Americans than Felton Road's Bannockburn Pinot. Seamless, flowing, smooth and very very smart, it's as cool as pinot comes. Like the song, it endures through time and fashion, as brilliantly conceived as ever, all the complex parts coming together in complete harmony. Ain't there one damn wine that can make me break down and cry? All night We want the Felton Bannockburn
- 3 x 2012 Winstead Lot 16 Pinot Noir: Matched with Let's Dance - Put on your pinot shoes and dance the blues...an irresistible beat, funky bass and joyous top notes...'tremble like a flower' echoes Winstead's brand new 2012 Lot 16. There's pinot perfume galore, violet florals of course and heady dark fruits too. Meatiness and rich plum in the mouth and a gloriously full and smooth texture. Complete harmony, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
- 3 x 2014 Glaetzer Dixon Avance Pinot Noir: Matched with The Jean Genie-Tassie's a go-go and pinot noir tastes right...Struts with style and confidence, it simply rocks... and we're not just talking about the music. Nick Glaetzer's Avance is a rocking little wine. Happy in its pinot work, with loads of texture and bouncy flavours, Avance gives immediate satisfaction. Scents of roasted nuts/meaty bones mingle with red cherries and intense cranberry. The bouquet amplifies with breathing. Deliciously spicy and chocolatey/cola with a mouth-filling texture with round and slightly chewy tannins.
