Palliser Estate Pinot Noir 2015 Martinborough

Complex and developing bouquet of Pinot with aromas and flavours of sweet red cherry and strawberry, some oak spices next with a mix of baking then bacon. Firm and youthful still with tense tannins and plenty of acidity. A quiet and lengthy finish – dry and warm. Still developing – best from 2018 through 2028.
