I'm intrigued. My first older vintage NZ Pinot. It's aged beautifully; wild game, salty meat, funk. It has life yet. 2005.

Aromas of game like venison with a component of dark cherry and a touch of smoke. The cherry core matched up with a good strawberry vibe in the palate with great balance. Medium tannins suggest another 5 years of aging at least. Great value!

I agree with the ratings. It’s good but not outstanding. I don’t think I would order it again.

Plum, smoked peach, cassis and raisin nose with short zing yet lingering smooth fruit finish. Excellent when being thankful with turkey.

Very substantial. We had the 12 and 13 vintage. The latter was clearly the winner with more vibrancy and from a generally better vintage. 13' rates here.
