Dense, rich pinot noir with sweet, plum, dark berry, floral/violet, spice/anise and nutty oak flavours. Intense flavoursome wine that is deliciously accessible now but has a promising future.

Dense, rich Pinot noir with sweet plum, dark berry, floral, violet, spice, anise and nutty oak flavours. Intense, flavoursome wine has a perfect balance that is deliciously accessible now but has a promising future. The wine has a perfect balance of fruit sweetness and ripe tannins. It is long and layered with impressive complexity.
98 Points The Real Review, 24 October 2017
An impressively composed pinot noir from their Te Muna Road Vineyard, the gloriously complex bouquet shows dark cherry, plum, smoked game, truffle and bay leaf aromas. The palate is refined and superbly weighted, and displays outstanding fruit power as well as seductive savoury nuances, wonderfully framed by fine, grainy tannins. The wine is engaging, hugely complex and sturdy. At its best: 2018 to 2027.
