If dark and broody with loads of black cherry and dried herb aromas sounds like a wine you’d love to drink, buy this beautiful Pinot Noir from the Inlet Vineyard in Bannockburn, Central Otago.
This 5.25 hectare site is situated 225 to 245 metres above sea level where the grapes’ growing season is extended thanks to the elevation, which provides cool nights as a foil to the hot days here.
Flavours of structured dark fruit combine with firm tannins and a long life ahead.
The wine was aged in French oak and bottled unfined.
