2015 Craggy Range Pinot Noir Te Muna Road Martinborough

God karakteristisk og meget generøs pinotnæse. Tørrede rosenblade, kirsebær, blommer, ristet kaffe og let muldede noter. Lækker smidig karakter, med en flot sdtruktur og syre. Elegant og vinøs. Topcharmerende vin. Et sandt scoop.

A very handy edition of Crimson pinot noir in 2016, this has a suave and grown-up feel to it. Innately complex and layered aromas, flavors and textures. This wine is packed with ripe red cherry and poached red plum fruits as well as inherently spicy, perfumed and earthy attributes. The way in which it rolls out on the palate is just superb; a silky, succulent and seductive red. Drink now. Screw cap.

Craggy Range's 2015 Te Muna Road Vineyard Pinot Noir is a fine example of Martinborough Pinot Noir, boasting savory overtones of earth and spice to go along with bold black cherry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, with smooth, supple tannins and crisp acids that illuminate the finish. 2018 - 2028.

Soldily built, with a core of red currant, bitter plum and raspberry coulis flavors that stretches out over slightly taut singed alder and juniper notes. Flashes of bay leaf and chestnut kick in on the finish, where a lingering iron accent has a mouthwatering feel. Best from 2019 through 2029.-J.M.
