Community Tasting Note

Monday, January 3, 2022 - Notes on Wines from December 2021 (Wellington, NZ): Served double blind by SoJo. Now, here’s some fun for wine options! … Deep dark colour. A bouquet of glossy black cherries, black raspberries and cola. A silky and sleek palate of juniper berries, dark cherries and plums, with off-putting suggestions of fruit sweetness. A very New World character but not, clearly, NZ or Australian. A pinot noir from the Americas? Napa Valley? No, Wales! Who knew? There followed a long debate of whether Wales is New or Old World in pinot … In all seriousness, a credible, fully ripe but very straightforward modern-style pinot noir.
