Locharburn
Locharburn Pinot Noir 2015 Central Otago
Familiar and engaging bouquet of ripe red cherry fruit, dried herb and rocky mineral tones; soft brown spices from toasty oak and a notable newer oak layer, moderate+ complexity. On the palate - dry, firm, youthful and flavourful; youthful expression of Pinot Noir with light red berry fruit flavours centering on cherry, soft dried herb, finer tannins with plenty of tension and medium+ acidity; overall a balanced and well amde wine - needs some integration time of 12-18 months.
88 Points
