Mt Difficulty Mansons Farm Pinot Noir 2019 (6 Bottles) Bannockburn, NZ

Mt Difficulty Mansons Farm Pinot Noir from New Zealand's Bannockburn bursts with deep crimson vibrancy from the gravelly single vineyard overlooking Kawarau River, hand-crafted in tiny quantities by the Mt Difficulty team using whole bunch ferments and French oak for dark blackberry power and savoury floral elegance that's pure Central Otago seduction. Dark blackberry, blueberry, plum and mocha aromas surge with violet florals, sweet brown spice and earthy complexity, flooding the dense mid-palate with savoury berry richness, fine-grained tannins and persistent cherry pit drive.
