Bannock Brae Goldfields Central Otago Pinot Noir 2014 $30 ★★★★
This is one heck of an exotically perfumed pinot made for the Bannockbrae team by world-class winemaking wahine, Sarah-Kate (SK) Dineen. Boasting plum, black tea, hedgerow fruits, savoury, peppery notes and a chunk of cherry on the palate, it has freshness, buoyancy and real character. The spice layers and solid tannic grip make for real interest on the finish too. Huge potential here. www.bannockbrae.co.nz
