Chard Farm Hawkesburn Vineyard Central Otago Pinot Noir 2022 $88
From a tiny site where four clones of vines grow high on a terrace above the Bannockburn Inlet, comes a Pinot Noir that erupts with vibrantly bright florals, fresh cherry, redcurrant and spice-dusted rhubarb on the nose. All that aromatic awesomeness osmoses through to the palate, washing across the tongue and gums and leaving a zesty, refreshingly berry-soaked impression on the finish. Energetic, youthful and lushly textured.
