I really don't have to say anything but if you really want to know this is quality. NZ have once again produced a fine example of Pinot Noir. If anything it has a couple of years left in the tank.

Impressive and interesting. Dark ripe cherries, sour cherries, warm spice. Seems restrained and subtle at first but gathers pace and lenth.

Such an amazing dark Pinot Noir from North island NZ. Deep garnet colour. Full of fruit sweet red & black berries, a meatiness, slightest hint of vanilla bean, coffee & spicy oak. Very soft on the palate, ultra delicate tannins, medium bodied on the palate.

前端的味道有一点点甜,后端均衡。新西兰的pinot。很突出的blackberry。
