Country: New Zealand / Moutere
Variety: Pinot Noir Nelson
Winery: Neudorf /
One of few Kiwi Pinots typically worth cellaring, Neudorf’s 2008 Moutere bottling comes across as a bit oaky, with menthol and cedar notes forming a tight overlay to the cherry fruit. Tannins are silky yet firm, suggesting the wine will be at its best 2012–2018.
