An excellent wine from what I'm told was a difficult vintage. Aromas burst from the glass -lovely honeyed red fruit and refined touch of oak. Classic Pinot colour, uniform, still youthful. Ripe fruit and tangy acidity on the palate, teeth coating sugars of cherry strawberry into cassis. Very yummy. Sourced at Avenue and Lawrence lcbo for $46 — 7 years ago

On the palate; tropicals of melon balls, citrus, citrus blossoms, white peach, light, delicate, beautiful minerality, fresh bright acidity and a lean rich finish. Photos of a wide view of their terrace and great view. — 7 years ago

After searching long and hard found one of my fav pinots from Otago NZ. Wish I had bought a case. Smooth, dark berries and perfect Bay Area summer drinking. I like this slightly more chilled than other Pinots. — 8 years ago

On the nose, green apple, lemon, lime, green melon, light butter, wood shavings, buttered popcorn, yellow & white florals. On the palate, green apple, lemon, lime, grapefruit, citrus blossoms, gentle, soft minerals with brilliant acidity. Photos of the amazing view from the Carrick terrace and grapes just delivered and waiting to be destined and pressed. We've been fortunate to many of the worlds wine regions and Central Otago is certainly one of the most majestic and beautifully scenic regions we've visited. — 7 years ago

Similar notes to the Pipeclay Terrace except that Long Gully is sweeter, bigger and more dense than Pipeclay. — 7 years ago

Less expressive on the nose than their Bannockburn Pinot Noir. However, the fruits on the nose; black raspberries, raspberries, dark cherries, blackberries, poached strawberries, light loamy soils with red roses. On the palate; ripe & beautiful; blueberries, blackberries, black raspberries, dark cherries, cherries, firmer sticky tannins, anise, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, beautiful soft spices, amazing fragrant fresh red florals, rich body with perfect mellow acidity. The finish is; flat out sexy elegance. These wines were the best we had in New Zealand. They are well crafted wines with beauty, elegance, excellent texture and precision. Not only are their wines amazing, look at that view. It's like a painting. The other photo shows their beautiful low yield Pinot Noir grapes. — 7 years ago
