Valli Bannockburn Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020, Central Otago

Ripe varietal red berry fruit scents with dark cherry and raspberry, contrasting fine savoury qualities showcasing wild thyme and rugged countryside schist qualities. Complex and youthful with sweet baking spice scents from barrel and silky smoky quality. Delicious on the palate with texture touching the senses first - an abundance of polished tannins and back bone of acidity echoing the wild and rocky countryside and thyme qualities. The core fruit flavours mirror the bouquet. Faboulous texture and length. Best drinking from 2023 through 2033+.
