My go-to pinot for weekday dinners at home - always have a couple in my par stock. Easy to drink with elements of its much more astute and noble big brother - Ata Rangi. Solid buy at price point. Typical New Zealand cherry flavors with a hint of mushroom/dirt.

Great value easy drinking Pinot. Nothing overly complex or interesting but impeccably made. Well balanced with vibrant but not overwhelming fruit and a nice spicy edge and slightly firm tannins that will no doubt soften in time. Not much in this price bracket that compares.

Very stylish. Typical, aromatic and sweet NZ PN fruit but balanced by a lovely minerality and refreshing acidity, some spicy oak, good length.
