Powerful wine. Like a black forest cake in term of both nose and palate

Ruby with aromas of red fruits, floral and sweet spicy vanilla oak. On the palate flavors of raspberry, strawberry and currants with lavender and vanilla notes. Medium tannins with racy acidity, great mouthfeel on a medium finish. Drink now but a bit of bottle age will reward.

Hiiiii I’ve been in a massive Pinot craving rut so here we go. It is very much bright and acidic yet there is a small bit of new French oak hubris. All in all I love acidic but ripe enough Pinot. I’ve had both better and worse NZ Pinot Noir. Like this bunches. Also (until I consider all the hands it changed until I was able to purchase) not sure if I’d spend 30-40 again but darn to heck enjoying new world Pinot.

Vintage 2013 - expressive red fruit, elegant and with new impressions in smell, like a peacock tail. Had a little bitterness in aftertaste that I did not like.

Earth forward, dried herbs, red and black cherry, clove, bay leaf and vanilla. A bit hot on the nose. M+ acid, m body and tannin. Long finish.

Pretty nose but falls flat on the palate

Oct 21st, 2017Light lemon color with aromas of citrus and tropical fruits and floral notes. On the palate flavors of grapefruit, green apple and pear fruit flavors, some grassy tones, lively acidity. Medium+ finish ending with fruit, herbal, floral, grassy and mineral notes. Lightly chill so you can experience all of the nuances while you sip this fine wine. Nice, consistent.
