The Akarua Pinot Noir never disappoints - Classic Central Pinot !
Multi-faceted nose of blood plums and red cherries; with star anise, nutmeg and cinnamon; and garrigue ? brambles, wild thyme, heather, rosehip and crushed herbs.
The palate structure is lithe; the acids are juicy yet taut, and the fine supple tannins lengthen the smoky mineral finish. The flavour spectrum finishes with earthy notes from the vineyards ? schist gravels and river pebbles.
