McArthur Ridge

McArthur Ridge Southern Tor Pinot Noir 2016 Central Otago

Lovely bouquet of dark fruited Pinot with aromas of dark cherry and ripe plump raspberry, aromas of oak layer in with a mix of vanilla and clove. Dry, fruity and exuberant on the palate with a core of red berry fruit flavours, firm-ish tannins and refreshing layer of acidity. A balanced and well made wine, youthful and well placed to enjoy with or without food. Best drinking late 2020 through 2024.

McArthur Ridge Southern Tor Pinot Noir 2018 Central Otago

Bright, fresh, fruity and youthful with a fresh red cherry and sweet raspberry bouquet, medium+ oak and youthful mineral layers. Dry on the palate with fine tannins and medium+ acidity. Flavours mirror the nose with moderate oak and a balanced, even finish. Overall a well made wine. Drink now and through 2024.
