2008 Hinton Hill Country Pinot Noir


2008 Hinton Hill Country Pinot Noir

$30

Central Otago

Who doesn't like a liittle raspberries and cream?  I smell chocolate covered goji berries, actually quite chewy or even crunchy.  Is it possible to smell crunchy?

Full bodied NZ pinot.  Not quite the same toastiness I expect from a Central Otago example and therefore, it is a little unique.  Some tangy sour raspberries on top.  Medium amount of tannins but all in all a delicious NZ red.
