Normally $43. Quintin, the owner thinks the 2009 is his best vintage since the world beating 2006 ( which was Trophy for Best Pinot Noir in the world at the London International Wine Show.) "The latest vintages are impressive. Grown in the Bannockburn and Pisa districts, and matured in French oak barriques." M.Cooper. The 2009 Growing season was an exceptional one in Central Otago, with perfect conditions for a small crop.
"Deep red colour with purple-red hues. On the nose you get red and dark cherry, black liquorice, musky oak and a hint of mushroom. The palate is full with ripe black cherry, plum, orange peel, cassis and mushroom with mouth caressing tannins and a lingering finish that won’t quit." Excellent top Central Pinot noir
