2006 Kawarau Estate Central Otago Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $30, screw cap.
Imported by Station Imports LLC, Colorado Springs, CO.
·
A complex wine with
plenty of things going on, but the fruit never really comes to the forefront. Lean
cherry, grass, earth, smoke, oak and a little vinegar scents. Earthy, grassy, woody
and a touch green overshadowing the cherry core. Pushy tannins on the finish.
