Pinot Noir

Thinnish, sharpish, vanilla tinged. Not very well balanced.

Pinot with a bit more punch once opened up

Earthy and herbal (dried) on the nose. Light candied red fruit aromas in the background. Red fruit flavors along with some hints of dark berries, earth and a peppery finish. Light bodied. Needed some time to open up but presented well when it did.

This is SO GOOD! Light and fruity with blackberry, currant. Juicy and interesting. Yum!

Light, bright, and tight. Almost tart. Needs maturation in the bottle.

Not my bag. Very little fruit.

Oaky and warm nose with flecks of vanilla. A nice spicy buttery flavor that is so not expected from a Pinot. Really a surprise. This wine seems more like a Shiraz. Very enjoyable.

Moderate candied red fruit with vanilla. A little disorganized on the palate which splits my judgement. Decent finish. Not quite worth the price for quality.

A Pinot from New Zealand? What, what??? A little tight...like Dave's prom date.
This tastes nothing like it did at the tasting. Boo.

Takes two glasses to tolerate it three to make it drinkable..
