Mystery Central Otago Pinot Noir 2023 (05)

Description

Floral, Oak, Raspberry

Black Market Mystery Wines™ are simply wines we love, with the branding hidden and revealed only when it arrives at your door!

"Rich and enticing, the inviting bouquet shows dark plum, raspberry, floral, almond and warm spice aromas. The palate is equally appealing with excellent weight and ripe fruit intensity, wonderfully framed by silky texture and polished tannins. At its best: now to 2029" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jan 2024

This wine exhibits a red/purple colour with a crimson hue. The nose reveals cherry and summer berries. A hint of leather with integrated oak and sweet vanillin adds depth and complexity that entices you to savour this wine. The palate shows a delicate elegance of black cherries and red berry fruit. The tannins are supple and well-integrated, adding length and supporting the palate.

The cool climate and gently sloping glacial moraine soils combine to deliver one of the best vineyards in the world for growing Pinot Noir. Optimal vineyard management and attention to detail allowed the grapes to be harvested at a time when the flavour profiles were at their maximum potential.

Food Pairing: The wine is instantly attractive and gratifying and complements a wide range of foods including, cheese, pasta, grilled and roasted meats, and vegetables.
