Ataahua Pinot Noir 2022, Waipara

A complex yet somewhat quietly spoken bouquet, there’s charm and elegance before the aromas of dark cherry and earthy spices emerge, aromas of clove dust and vanilla pod then roses and dried raspberry. A subtle complexity that come into focus as the wine opens up in glass. A wine of texture then fruit, charm then wood, elegance then spice and smoke. This is also a wine that captures some mineral qualities reflecting place and time. Youthful, fresh and individual, a wine that you could investigate and I am sure you will enjoy. Best drinking from 2026 through 2036.
