Akarua Central Otago Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2019

Tasting: NZ Recent Release - July August 2021

Region: Bannockburn

Year: 2019

Price: $39.00

Review/Comments
Already highly enjoyable, this estate-grown red was hand-picked from 23 year-old vines and matured for nearly a year in French oak barriques (27% new). Bright ruby, it is full-bodied, sweet-fruited and supple, with vibrant cherry, plum and spice flavours, finely integrated oak adding complexity, and excellent depth and harmony. Best 2024+. $39 (A, UK, US)
