Rockburn Eleven Barrels Pinot Noir 2019, Parkburn Vineyard, Central Otago

Smoky, toasty bouquet with aromas of roasted red berries, plum and wood spices. Complex, youthful and enticing. On the palate is where all the action is with flavours of fresh and dried raspberry, spicy preserved cherry, vanilla and clove then a fine dried herb and savoury core. Tannins and acidity are in abundance working side by side adding texture and structure while the core of ripe fruit easily weaves throughout the palate and in contrast. A youthful, approachable, well made wine that will easily stand the test of time in your cellar, but also enjoyable to day with the right food. Best drinking from late 2021 through 2027+.
