Finely textured and very much in the cherry-berry arena with light spice giving rise to red earthy notes, a touch of pomegranate and aromatic florals complete what is a highly enjoyable young New Zealand Pinot. A wine of some balance, fine in tannin with an air of sophistication and is as smooth as it is long. Flavours rise on the palate in red berry fruits and a gentle spice, nicely enhanced in aromatic florals and notes of pomegranate with an additional red earthiness peeping in towards the finish.
