The Story

Brilliant purple in colour, this wine displays sweet, ripe strawberry aromas, coupled with complex Chinese five spice and cinnamon nuances. The palate is elegant and supple, with remarkable power, intensity and length. Framed by ripe, moderate tannin the graceful, sweet strawberry fruit is complemented, yet not dominated, by spice. Overall, the wine has wonderful poise and balance.

Written Notes

Not exactly a revelation as Bay of Fires have been making excellent Pinot for some time, but this must be as good as any of them. An alluring mix of both black and red cherry notes. Floral hints, a supple texture. This is a lovely dense yet dancing Pinot. Juicy acidity. Fine tannins. Really delicious. A star. Wines like this might see the world’s fascination with Kiwi Pinot turn its gaze slightly west.

Score: 96/100

Best drinking: over the next 6 years.

Alc: 13.5%
