Doctors Flat Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020, Bannockburn, Central Otago
Distinctive, floral, fruity and mineral centric bouquet. Aromas and flavours of dark roses and black cherry flesh, sweetness from new barrel and spices from some smoky wood accentuate the power of this youthful wine. As the wine touches the palate a satin touch shows first then contrasting structure from ripe tannins and medium+ acid line. Fruit flavours expand to include black currant and some plum, then a line of oak re-emerges layering in complexity and depth. Youthful still with time in cellar still needed. Best drinking from 2028 through 2038.
