Another magnificent New Zealand Pinot! Outstanding colour for Pinot Noir. Deep crimson colour with mauve hue. Aroma of rhubarb, black cherry, spice and wild strawberries – a delightful sniff! The palate starts off a touch drier than say the 2002 Ata Rangi, going into a short dip revealing flavours of spice, black cherry, strawberry and spice, and just as one begins to feel a touch of disappointment, the second flavour wave emerges to reveal magnificent Pinot Noir power. Perfectly balanced with velvet smooth tannins which lead into an aftertaste that lasts for minutes.
