2019 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Pinot Noir - Martinborough NZ

Bright cherry with purple hue. Leaps from the glass. Wild strawberry, blueberry and white truffle notes all in abundance. The palate has so much excitement and vibrancy yet an undeniable depth of flavour. Red fruits and savoury notes all present here. The acidity is fresh yet doesn’t attract from the silky mouthfeel - still a long road ahead for this wine.

"Fancy feeling, yep. Kicks off with cherry juice, dried fruit, ground nuts, some mahogany and sweet herbs in the mix of scents. The palate is sinewy in a good sense, excellent in length, all satiny and long. Lots of flavour in a leaner, refined coil of flavour with a lot going on. Really fine, excellent and reserved expression. One for big glasses."
