Note di degustazione
First impression is toasty, smoky oak, although it is not overdone. Peppery and sweet spice, too. Much more obviously NZ in style than the Seresin Leah Pinot tasted alongside. The oak is a little marked on the finish still but the fruit is attractive underneath. (JH)

Pale to medium ruby-purple-colored, the 2011 Pinot Noir offers pronounced notes of red cherries, black raspberries and red currants with suggestions of underbrush, violets and cinnamon stick. Medium-bodied with plenty of mouth-filling red berry and earthy flavors, a medium level of fine-grained tannins and vibrant acid, it finishes with very good length and finesse. Drink it now to 2017+.

Bright medium red. Musky raspberry, smoke and earth aromas are complicated by a hint of toast and lifted by a mineral nuance. At once supple and brisk, showing good juicy intensity to its cherry, red berry and spice flavors. Slightly dry-edged and simple on the back but nicely done.
