Rapaura Springs Limestone Terrace Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018, Ward, Marlborough

limestoneterrace.png

Complex, savoury, varietal, youthful and engaging bouquet with aromas of dried herb and ripe red berries, fermented roses and dried cranberry, moderately toasty wood aromas with a touch of wood smoke. On the palate - dry, tense, fruity and textured with fine chalky tannins, medium+ acidity and core of fruit concentration just right for the weight and mysterious side that Pinot Noir can show. Great balance and lengthy finish.
