Domain Road Vineyard Defiance Central Otago Pinot Noir 2017

Tasting: Otago - September/October 2019

Region: Central Otago

Year: 2017

Price: $65.00

Review/Comments
This powerful, single-vineyard Bannockburn red was hand-picked and matured for 10 months in French oak barrels (29 per cent new). Deep and youthful in colour, it is highly fragrant, with dense, youthful cherry, plum and spice flavours, showing excellent vigour, concentration and structure. Best drinking 2022+. $65 (A)
