Rex Pickett's Sideways Pinot Noir 2020, Central Otago

There’s no mistaking the origin of the fruit for this wine with its black cherry, savoury and dried herb highlights. Aromas and flavours of the same with a backbone of firmish tannins and plenty of acidity. A layer of baking spice and baked nut reflect the use of oak - all wrapped in a core of red berry fruits and plum. Balanced and well made with best drinking from 2024 through 2029.
