Felton Road Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2010

One of New Zealand's finest Pinot Noirs, this Central Otago icon is making stunning, biodynamic wines year after year. With a perfect microclimate and an expressive terroir, these guys really know their stuff. In 2010 Felton Road was designated a Grand Cru winery of New Zealand.

"Good full red. Pure but restrained aromas of raspberry, minerals, white pepper, rose petal and herbs; about as Chambolle-like as any New Zealand pinot I've tasted this year. Juicy, tangy and pristine, with lovely sappy lift to the red fruit and spice flavors. Offers a compelling combination of sweet fruit and inner-palate energy. Finishes sappy and impressively long, with spicy, peppery tannins."
