2022 Neudorf Home Block Moutere Pinot Noir, Nelson

A deep and brooding Pinot.

The palate and aromas are beautifully intertwined - dark cocoa nibs, freshly roasted coffee beans, black cranberries and ripe cherries with a hint of pink peppercorns and campfire smoke. These elements come together in a brilliantly bold Pinot, atypical of Nelson.

Fine tannins frame this wine as it moves through the palate. This chalky note keeps the rather voluptuous flavour profile in check and gives the wine an elegant mouthfeel.

This deserves a great cut of meat thrown on a seriously hot BBQ. Open a couple of hours early or decant to enjoy at its best.
