Tasting Notes
A touch of reduction still plays about the tart, bright red cherry fruit on the nose. It is on the palate that the absolute brightness and dominance of that vivid red fruit becomes clear. It fills mouth and mind with its purity and savoury-edged redcurrant, cherry and cranberry. The sunlight of Central Otago is present in the warm finish, as is the pristine fruit.
