Wine Review: This slightly opaque and dark red colored Pinot Noir from Central Otago is Excellent! It opens with a very inviting pomegranate and craisin bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, balanced, soft and refined. The flavor profile is a tasty mineral and pomegranate blend with notes of old oak and red plum. The finish is dry and its moderate well-managed tannins fade away nicely. I would pair this Pinot gem with Colorado lamb chops. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Enticing layers of floral, berry and spice notes complement earthy aromatics of wet stone and black tea. With time in the glass, deeper savory notes and richness from the whole cluster use emerge. This vintage has shown wonderful finesse from the outset, with silky texture and an attractive seamlessness throughout. Focused and very elegant, the wine has fine persistent tannins extending the harmonious finish. Cellaring for up to 7-10 years
