Tired already. Maybe storage flaw?

Nice poolside quaffer. Sitting under the umbrella sipping Pinot and curing the jet lag. Works for me. Better than the earlier vintage I tried.

Really nice Pinot Noir from NZ. Clear and transparent colour. Red berries, raspberries, some fur and animal notes as well. Soft tannins and high acidity, freshness in the palate and medium aftertaste.

Boysenberry Greek yoghurt, lite bits of acid. This wine has more residual showing on it than most other Pinots, not subtle by any means. Creamy body. A bit overpriced for what it is.

Red fruit bomb, if that's possible. A little tea Leaf and meatiness. High acidity. Pretty good.

Dark cherry on the palate. Some Tannins providing dryness offsetting fruitiness common in Pinot Noir. This is a style typical of the Otago region and one that I like. January 2024.
