Tankersley Estate Central Otago

Two Reviews

Tankersley Estate PN 2015: This wine has Pinot Noir at the core of the bouquet and palate, the majority of the fruit aromas and flavours remain primary with some secondary development flavours and textures starting to show. Dark cherry and baked raspberry with a finer savoury core, oak and acidity offer good structure and foundation for the fruit. Firmish tannins, balanced and well made. 93 Points

Tankersley Estate PN 2016: Youthful and ripe with awesome decent red berry fruits and cherry stone fruit aromas, moderate oak and youthful still. The palate is calm and balanced with core fruit flavours reflecting the bouquet. Tannins and acidity intact. The essence of PN is here, but I also feel the wine is lacking complexity and harmony overall. 91 Points
