Mud House
Mud House 2013 Pinot Noir 'Claim 431 Vineyard' Central Otago 14%
Vibrant ruby appearance with aromas to match - ripe red plum and raspberry with a spice layer, forward in its fruityness, but also has a mineral layer that is easily missed as the fruits are so bold.
On the palate - dry - lushousley fruity, lightly smokey and very flavorful; reminds of a Passe tout Grains and Beaujolais combined with its hint of whole berry flavor; mild brown spice notes; medium+ acidity, fine tannins, balanced and well made. Will please many who have a glass of this.
