I had this 2015 and I could sense it was already starting to show negative signs of age. Starting to show tertiaries and tiredness. It’s a lovely wine and I would rate it higher, but if you have 2015s or older vintages you should drink them now or RIP. That’s my feeling. #pinotnoir#martinborough#newzealand

I drank plenty of this on the last night of PINOT NZ 2017 and forgot to take notes. One of the better Martinborough Pinot's made by Aussie Winemaker Larry McKenna.

Savoury and built around its mineral spine, but it's also angular and still backward on the palate. Not entirely sure additional cellaring will do much good, but it will for sure not give up without a fight. 89+?

At 10 years old a wine that is drinking quite nicely and the 2015 was seen as a good Martinborough vintage, and the single vineyard KIWA as having good structure, complexity, and capacity for aging to 2025 and beyond. It’s a harmonious balance of fruit and savory complexity with earthy, spicy, and savory notes, underpinned by its structure and a long finish.

I give this a higher rating than the 8.9 average. A very smooth yet full bodied Pinot with an excellent nose. Very drinkable. Would get again. Love me some New Zealand Pinot Noir. ❤️😊🍷
