2019 Rippon Pinot Noir Mature Vine

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

92 Points

Saturday, March 23, 2024 - The second wine at our 35th tasting was this Kiwi Pinot. It is pale-to-medium garnet colored with medium viscosity (13.5% ABV). Medium (+) intensity aromas of black cherry, cherry Coke, barnyard, cranberry, white pepper, licorice and leather. On the palate it was dry with medium (+) acidity, medium (-) body and low tannins. Flavors of cherry cola, Rooibos tea, white and black pepper, clove, cedar, cough medicine and yet more cherry led to a medium length finish. I loved this wine for its beautiful mouthfeel and great balance and gave it 15 points on our scoring sheet. We paid $55, which is quite pricy but the quality and purity of this wine was worth it- 92 points from me which makes it a 4 star effort to drink till 2028.
