Has some spice but almost a watery finish. Fine for drinking casually.

For my first NZ Pinot I selected a value bottle. The flavors were okay. Not too hot however I think there was too much extraction. Oak chips were present. There was a little earth in the mid palate.

Not bad! Very tart at first. Used an Aervana to aerate and it tasted a lot better after about 10 min. Definitely a decent table wine. More on the fruity than silky side.

Cherry on the nose. There is a floral rose note in the aroma, dry finish with a medium body.

Easy to drink but not a ton of flavor. But would buy again.

Easy drinking, Fruity and simple, right for the price.
