On the nose; fresh and slight gummy raspberries, dark cherries, blackberries, poached strawberries, cherries, gentle spices, loamy soils and fresh dark florals. On the palate; fresh, tart & sour; black raspberries, raspberries, dark cherries, blackberries and black cherries. M+ tannins, nice gentle spices that rise in heat off the palate, cinnamon, nutmeg, loamy soils and soft minerals. The even finish is; fresh, round & rich fruits with fresh red florals and beautiful acidity. Photos of the lunch their Chef prepared for us, photo of just how low their yields are of Pinot Noir grapes and the view from another side of their Cellar Door. One thing of note, Central Otago is right about on the southern most line of being able to grow grapes. The climate is so cool that the foliage turns and or can completely fall off before they harvest the grapes. — 8 years ago

Have usually found Carrick wines to be big and rich and this was no exception but tempered by its age on this occasion. Great if you like the style. — 8 years ago
