Compared to the Kiwa, the Pahi has a bit more colour, has a tad more vanilla, some peppers and less pronounced bitters. The acidity is more gentle and the wine shows some roundness and lots of craftsmanship, but is not very inviting.

New Zealand Trip; 2/10/2024-2/24/2024: Light ruby. Open aromas, more floral tones and menthol than the basic Pinot Noir. Light to medium weight, lovely elegant feel, fine soil foundation, inner mouth fragrance, tangy fruit, and a more serious, somber finish. Excellent, very “feminine”, and well constituted for medium term aging.

During a MOT walkabout tasting, no detailed notes. Good NZ pinot here, true to the style with crunchy red fruit.
