My first NZ Pinot. Wow was my first response, how different from Oregon. Nose shows little of what's to follow. Spice and smoke, a nice balanced dose of acid. Some tannins, Which surprised me for a 7 year old. Cherries, some hints of dark fruit. A pleasant difference from US Pinot.

Dense and rich, ripe dark cherries, sweet herbals and spices, full body, fine grained tannins, not fully integrated yet.
Ap 5/5, Ar 13/15, Palate 16/20, Overall 4+3/10
Total 91+/100
