Walker Bay
Walker Bay is a coastal wine district, located to the south-east of Capetown, near the town of Hermanus (of whale-watching fame).
Walker Bay has built its reputation on Pinot Noir, and best exemplified by the wines from the Bouchard-Finlayson & Hamilton-Russell estates.
Walker Bay has a cool, maritime climate. However vineyard virus and small scale production have prevented thsi wine region from competing effectively against the Pinot Noirs from New Zealand.

Ready, but will improve,
There is a lovely purity to the red cherry aromas of the 2013 Hamilton Russell Pinot Noir. Fragrant and pretty, the bouquet is followed by a good concentration of red and black fruit on the palate. The tannins are subtle and well-managed and a floral note lifts the whole. This is an excellent and very pretty Pinot Noir. Drink 2014 - 2020.
