A more delicate and medium bodied Pinot Noir this is an elegant and supple wine. Perfumed aromatics of floral and herbal notes with a sinewy core of both red and dark fruits over fine grained tannins. Delicious texture showing balance, power and finesse. Classic Central Otago, with fruit elements and herbal tones. A Classic vintage is where you have long autumn’s however still with the region’s trademark cool nights/warm days, allowing a gradual ease into ripeness.
This is a lovely drop of Merlot, demonstrating the wine skills of the Languedoc Roussillon area. I holidayed in the region some years ago and loved their wines - great to see them this side of the world and available. Versatile, easy drinking. So good my neighbour has also bought a case after tasting mine!
