Strong cherry and plum flavours with herbal and spice overtones. Moderately rich Pinot Noir with fresh acidity and pleasantly drying tannins. Solid varietal wine that strays close to the line between physiological ripeness and unripeness.

Tasted: Aug 2010   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $24 (~USD $18)
