Mt Difficulty Target Gully vineyard Pinot Noir 2013 Bannockburn Central Otago
Distinctive almost powerful bouquet of Pinot Noir with raw energy lead by ripe fruit, abundant minerality, oak and a stinging savoury complexity. The palate is equally full of energy revealing a tense and tightly wound package; dark red berries and plum, spices and a return of savoury elements; fine to moderate tannins and notable acidity all speak to the youth demonstarting cellar time is a must with this example. The finish long though needs 2-3 years in cellar to integrate and show-off its pedigree.
