This Pinot starts off plush, fruity and relatively rich, with red fruit, mealy oak, baking spice and floral notes. It's saved by the palate that is unexpectedly elegant, lifted and fresh, wound by spicy, chalky tannins that have muscle but never take over. Red berry and spice flavors flow gracefully to the finish.\n \n Producer Information\n Generations in the making, Mohua Wines was founded in 2009 to create delicious wines from some of New Zealand’s highest quality regions.
