Pegasus Bay Pinot Noir 2018, Waipara Valley, North Canterbury
Red currant and dark cherry, a savoury core with dried herbs, toasty barrel spices of French oak and a mix of tea, dried earth and baking spices. Youthful and complex. On the palate - flavours of dark berries and plum, cherry and savoury dried herb qualities the a touch of sour cherry to stretch the palate before the new wood textures and flavours take over Firm tannins and medium+ acidity, a core of fruits and plenty of pinosity. Well made, young and needing cellar time. Best drinking from late 2022 through 2030+.
