9.5

My first of 6. Smells like a full bodied Pinot Noir. The palate is rich with a lovely fruit sweetness, cherry and plum, and again, a full bodied Pinot Noir with intensity. Ticks all the boxes. Texture and the tannins are silky. Enough acid and tannin to go another 8 to 10 years. 98 points from HH. — a month ago

Crisp, mixed fermentation of barrel and stainless steel creates texture, lots of tropical fruit! — 4 years ago

Bright mid crimson in colour. A lovely perfume as you would expect from a top Tasmanian Pinot with 10 years of age. Interesting to compare this to the 2009 Ata Rangi I had a week ago. The AR was more Burgundian and a tad more enjoyable. Following night for the Freycinet - dried cherries and “old lady’s talcum powder” on the nose. Supple mouth feel. Medium plus intensity. — 5 years ago

Colour of light to mid Ruby with a tawny rim - almost transparent. Red fruited aromatics of cherry and strawberry with a little pepper and whole bunch notes. Next day a jubey note on the palate amongst the pastel red fruits. M- acid and tannins. Martinborough is great for Pinot Noir. Dry River has some famous neighbours like Ata Rangi and Escarpment. — a year ago

#pinotgris from #nzwine #martinborough okay overpriced but still lovely and textural. Lots of ripe Granny Smith and green water pears in the nose and palate. Also a bit flinty (screwcap) lemon rind, honey, ripe pineapple...my God as I’m writing this tasting note I’m liking it more and more. Has some Rieslingesque qualities and just a pinch of sweet ripe fruit on the finish — 4 years ago
