"(2020 vintage) Dense and dark, ripe fruited, doused with warm, clove and cinnamon spice. IN all that, larger proportions but well judged, brooding, chunky, dry and firm to finish, and up to that a wine of slurpy, dense but elevated pinot. It delivers a true to form expression of Central Otago pinots, in that heftier but well balanced sense."
- Mike Bennie




Tasting Notes

Perfumed aromatics with a unique clarity. Red and black fruits are immediately on the nose, along with floral notes. On the palate, this wine demonstrates a a good level of precision, plush yet dense flavour, nice textural tannins, sustain fruit and acidity. This will cellar nicely.
