  9/22/2023 - Saint B Likes this wine:

  A relatively youthful dark maroon colour. No decanting required. Intense nose of sweet red fruits, strawberries, cherries, compote, and roses that gradually dissipated. There was a very subtle hint of oak. Had the classic cherry aromas associated with Pinot Noir. Palate was equally pleasant, red fruits, with a touch of salinity. Very drinkable, tannins were imperceptible. I was very much surprised by this bottle, reaffirming my view that there's tonnes of value to be had in NZ PNs. Delicious!

  Curiously little on the nose and if anything more vegetal than fruit aromas - light cabbage, wet moss, cut wood and some black pepper.
  Medium-bodied and full of flavour in the mouth. Spicy, dry, mixed forest fruits - a sort of earthy juiciness and deliciously chewy. Good tannins still - his could last longer.
