Had this at a great restaurant in the TV Tower in Auckland. Fantastic 360 degree views and great attentive service. Better than the 2010 Reserve I tasted more recently. Great pure blue, red and beetroot, vanilla, bubblegum and spice aromas. The palate was really singing with nice depth, lovely plushness and a medium stylish finish.

Pinot noir typé Nouveau monde avec une robe assez dense pour un pinot, une nez charmeur sur les épices et une bouche ample et légèrement sucré mais sans aucune complexité. finale courte.

Thin, short, watery useless wine. Light red. Nose says: "small New World PN". Palate says: pointy/spiky acids, shoooort, watery, poor wine. Got better after 2 hrs of air. Was slam-dunk-killed by a creamy Brie... Score reflects the most generous score I can possibly award this wine. With TS, some crackers, cheese and then grappa (Stlm, Sweden)

Mostly lingonberry, slight hint of strawberry. Ends peppery.

Thin, fruit driven New World Pinot Noir. Nil secondary characteristics. I do not think it has the elements to improve with time.

Milo powder lifted nose with dark berries and sweet licourice finish. A little candied.
