New Zealand Wine Review – Poppies, Martinborough, Pinot Noir, 2012 (3rd tasting)

Aroma: Delicate. Berries and herbs with late spcie. Cinnamon and clove. Wild blackberry.
Color: Dark and tawny with bloodshot circles.
Consistency: Soft ridegs. Very light.
Taste: Subtle chilli and berry. Savory bean and stewed meats. Complex and interesting.
Cost: $NZ35 (approx cellar door)
Quality rating: 5/10
Value rating: 7/10
Final words: There are cheaper wines to be had for equal enjoyment. That said this is a very satifying and complex wine. Tartrate crystals at bottom of this bottle. We still have more.
