Green pepper, sour cherry. Tiny bit (under 5ppm) TCA, which blows off quickly. Delicious new works, but with plenty of balancing acidity. Bought from a supermarket in NZ, so storage could have been an issue.

Peppery, sour with a cherry finish. Not as smooth as a traditional PN. Low rating against other central Otago PNs
