9.1

Spicy and a touch vine-y, energetic and understatedly full in taste, light in body, ideally like my text saying more things with less words. Black cherries red cherries a whiff of clove, smoke and vines. Lithe. Punching above the price point. Clearly a New World wine and there’s nothing wrong with that.

This was very big on black and blue fruit. Almost like Ken wright. A lot of rose. Definitely not your typical Pinot from NZ
