HAWKSHEAD PINOT NOIR 2020

Central Otago

This pinot noir has a ripe, plump fleshy textured core of dark red berries led by fresh raspberry and cherry. There’s a tease of new oak with five spice and clove. You’ll also find a savoury rugged Otago hillside layer adding complexity and mouthfeel. It has fine tannins and elevated acidity, fresh, youthful, fine and complex. Drinking best from 2022 through 2028. RRP $44.
