Akitu A1 Pinot Noir 2019
Grape Varietal & Region: A 100% Pinot Noir from Lake Wanaka in Central Otago, New Zealand
Taste Profile: The first aroma from this wine gives a hint to the depth and complexity that lies beneath, hidden for now in the glass. Layers of graphite, brown spice and wild herbs sit across dark plummy fruit. Ripe dark cherries, dark rose petal and a hint of sous bois are all coiled very tightly in a compact bundle of aromatic intensity. This one will take some time to show its true depth and complexity.
The palate opens with intense fruit concentration over a core of powerful soft tannin. There are layers of textural phenolics pushing up against fruit plushness which impress and excite
Winemaking Process: 40% whole bunch, balance whole berry, 20% new French oak
