Felton Road, Bannockburn (Central Otago, New Zealand) Pinot Noir 2010

Sep 19, 2012

By

 This is a restrained style of Pinot Noir, and it offers red fruits such as red currants and bitter cherry along with anise and cinnamon on the nose.  The initial palate impression is supple with the fruits being accented by earth and spice notes.  The finish is dry and has a sappy green note.  Overall this is a well-structured, and well-balanced wine with characteristic cooler-climate aromas and flavors.
