Love the exotic spice in this. Great mix of smoke, bright fruit, and bright acid.

This I purchased today for $14.99 on sale. Nose is a beautiful red fruit, strawberries, red raspberries, cranberry, a nice bread dough, a little smoke and an earthy component. They palate brings out tart strawberries, tart cranberries, tart plum, and some spice. There is good higher acidity with lower tannin but because of the acidity there is a long finish. A little thinner than I like and it doesn't fill out the mouth like I like. All in all a nice New Zealand Pinot and for the price a great QPR!

Medium body, floral and kiwi scent, light tannin and acidic finish. Much better after decanting.

Violet, mocha, dry leaves, and berry aromas make up this exquisite New Zealand Pinot Noir that clearly hint at the potential of Pinot in the Southern Hemisphere.
