Note di degustazione
Normal growing season with a cool finish and quite a late harvest. Angular wines in youth which worried people initially but they have been comforted by the fact that they have aged well. Healthy bright crimson. Beautiful balance and sweetness with a hint of menthol. Juice and freshness. Bright dry finish. Lovely freshness. But this seems to be at peak now. (JR)

Good deep, bright red. Complex, Burgundian aromas of dark raspberry, smoked meat, rose petal and dark chocolate. Rich, ripe and deep but quite dry, with a texture that's at once fine-grained and chewy. Edgy acidity gives this wine a vibrant character. Impressively tactile and concentrated Central Otago pinot, with a long finish featuring serious tannins. Again, this is savory more than sweet, and appears to be built to reward cellaring.
Dense and lively and correct. Grown up stuff with real ambition, ie not ready yet! (JR)
