A dusty rose-petal hue, this Pinot is an elegant, cool-climate example from one of New Zealand's most unique vineyards. A enticing perfume of blueberries, dried red berries, spice, florals and herbs swirls together to create a cocktail-bitters feel, backed by a little campfire-smoke note. Light on its feet, the palate is lacking a little length and fruit depth for a wine of this caliber, but there's a lovely line of acidity and flavors that evokes autumnal drinking beside a charcuterie board. Drink now and over the next few years.
