2008 Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir

Semi translucent crimson red colour with crimson mauve hue. Perfumed aromas of dark cherries and strawberries followed by cedar and a touch of earthy stalk as an end note. Light to medium weight the palate possesses plenty of richness and a good power wave with flavours of dark cherries, cedar and spice followed by some gamey anise like characters. Very fine grained soft tannins. Long aftertaste of dark cherry, cedar, anise and spice.
Drink over the next 3-4 years (2011-2015).
Alc 14.0%
