Craggy RangeTe Muna Pinot Noir 2013
About this product
Handpicked from the higher terrace of the vineyard and fermented with indigenous yeast producing a wine with a silky layered texture providing interest and complexity. The 2013 is derived from lovely ripe flavours of black cherry and red fruits are balanced with fine velvety tannins and a hint of dry earth.

Deep red colour with a good purple rim. There are rich, ripe black cherry aromas with some spice and lush, sweet, ripe brandied cherry notes. The palate is full and lush, with depth and intensity, softness and extract. The finish has some sappy tannins and alcohol warmth. Plenty of oak has been employed here. A very good wine in a bigger, more opulent style, but a touch plain and sappy on the finish. It will reward cellaring.
