Rockburn 2013 Pinot Noir (Central Otago)

Country: New Zealand /
Variety: Pinot Noir Central Otago
Winery: Rockburn /

This is ripe and muscular without being overly oaky. Cherry fruit is supported by a balanced dose of cedary oak, but the tannins come largely from the fruit, suggesting decent aging potential. The finish is dry, firm and long, further bolstering that impression. Drink 2017–2025.
