Tasting note:

Vibrant with bright, tart cherry aromas. Lively and mouth-watering with a medium-body and satin-smooth texture. Some cranberry and dark cherry on this finish. A terrific pinot for this price point! Food matches: grilled salmon with pinot noir sauce, coq au vin, roast turkey.

If you're a Pinot Noir fan, I mean a classic Pinot Noir fan, you will enjoy this Mud House from Central Otago. Some of the classic flavours come out (barnyard, almost musty) but ripe with blackberry fruit. Central Otago is making a name for themselves and competing with Martinborough to be New Zealands Pinot capitals. If you haven't tried one from the region before this is a great starting point.
Very Typical Pinot Noir with cherry, cranberry on the nose together with a touch of beet-root and dry black cherry. Firm body and elegant finish
