Cornish Point Vineyard Pinot Noir Bannockburn Vineyard 2004
Central Otago, South Island, New ZealandCornish Point vineyard is "planned as a Pinot Noir "laboratory". It has been divided into 25 blocks, each sized to supply a single 3 tonne fermenting tank." All but one block is planted to pinot noir in wide variety of clone types and rootstocks: 16 different combinations in all, with rootstocks matched to changing soil structure. Look for a super spicy carrot top nose streaked with ripe pinot fruit and savoury notes. The fruit is black cherries spiked with savoury poultry spice. Sappy earthy New World pinot you can drink now.Tasted: 27 November 2005Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $54.90 | 750ml | speculative listing - Liquid Art Fine Wines |
