2011 Mt Difficulty Roaring Meg Pinot Noir (Central Otago, NZ).
Entry level pinot may never get better than this. The structure & complexity belies its youth. Brambles, truffles & a load of beaten leather. Nose of strawberries & undergrowth.
Did not skip a beat on Day 2. More savouriness & delicate spices. Mouthfilling pinot noir where others just slip on through. Plenty to admire & matched with crispy skin pan fried blue eye, smashingly.
Must now revisit the Estate label.
Tasted 2nd & 3rd December 2012
