Note di degustazione
The 2019 Te Wahi Pinot Noir hails from Central Otago (to be clear), but I’ve included it in the Marlborough report, given the estate is based there. Bottled in very heavy Burgundy glass and under natural cork, this wine leads with savory, earthy notes of fresh game, black pudding, charred coffee grounds, resin, oak and inflections of peat. In the mouth, the wine is hearty and full, shaped by firm, plentiful tannins. It feels very early in its lifespan, currently. It’s an altogether savory, rich, dense wine with a long future in front of it. 13.5% alcohol

Rich, deep and sweet, the 2019 Pinot Noir Te Wahi is Cloudy Bay's Central Otago label. It's full, open, ripe and sitting sweetly within its drinking window with attractive plum and cherry fruit, festive spices and the beginnings of savory, tertiary characters. Despite its ease and approachability, there's not much going on here, and you're left wanting more: more depth, nuance, and length.
