"Big Pinot Noir ruby. Bouquet is more oaky than some of the top Otago wines, mingled with an interesting aromatic note and a faintly buttery component in the aroma, on generalized berry. Palate brings the wine back into the Otago black cherry line, being rich, long, reasonably well balanced in a more oaky interpretation relative to the standard Mt Difficulty, long aftertaste. Cellar 5-12 years, but for purity of varietal expression, go for the standard wine." 18/20 - 4 stars."
