Ata Rangi
Ata Rangi McCrone Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013 Martinborough
Complex and significant bouquet with layers of mineral, ripe fruit, new and used barrel aromas and an harmonious synergy that gets srtonger with each swirl and sniff. On the palate - dry, firm, fruity and complex with layers of red berry fruits intertwined with oak and silty mineral flavours, some darker spice moments, fine silky tannins and plenty of acidity adds texture and structure; the lengthy finish a great bonus. Overall a very youthful example with 10+ years of development time ahead. A keeper for sure.96 Points
