Kurow Village Reserve Waitaki Valley NZ Pinot Noir 2009

87/100
Elegant wine that's reasonably concentrated, very linear and surprisingly long. Austere with sappy tannins and hints of floral and red cherry plus spice. Distinctive and different Pinot Noir that is more typical of Burgundy than the Waitaki Valley.
