Alexandra Bridge Pinot Noir 2022, Central Otago
A distinctive bouquet with a soil mineral and gentle savoury drive. Varietal with darker cherry flesh and black currant moments, dried herb and thyme, a layer of wood spice and toasty barrel add complexity and power. Taut, youthful, salivating and dry as the wine touches the palate, tannins are abundant with a coarse silk texture, acidity carries flavours, also adding freshness and texture. A well made wine ticking all the boxes of quality and youthful needing time to integrate and harmonise, best drinking from 2025 through 2034+.
