2024 Te Mata Estate Pinot Noir

Supple red to dark fruits with a long, juicy yet savoury finish.

Dark red core with black shaded edges and a red to dark red hue. Perfumed aromas of violet, red cherry and strawberry sail out of the glass trailed by subtle anise, fresh herb, forest floor and spice notes. Delicious red to dark cherry and strawberry fruits flow supplely across the palate with notions of forest floor, dried herbs and spicy cedar lying in the background. Polished tannins with a long, juicy yet savoury finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13.5%

Other Reviews……
A very direct and serious pinot noir that delivers beautifully pure strawberry and cherry character with hints of spices such as cloves. It’s medium-bodied with firm, lightly chewy tannins and a touch of smoke and matchstick at the end. Drink now. Screw cap.
