Beautiful wine but not what you'd expect from Martinborough Pinot. More Syrah like on the nose, with black fruits and kirsch. Almost liquorice undertones. Palate is very sensual and soft, velvet like and beautifully balanced. Seriously good wine but not really Pinoty.

Not as opulent as some Central Otago Pinots. This is from Martinborough. James Halliday who has had more Burgundies than most of us called this the "Pommard of New Zealand"! Notes of spice and rhubarb with excellent length. A top quality Pinot. Not cheap at $100+.
