Wine Entry : Gibbston Valley Pinot Noir 2011

Taste : Nice bright Pinot Noir from Central Otago, richer and denser in flavour than most Pinots, but had too acidic an aftertaste for my liking. Would probably do well being decanted or left to cellar longer.

Write up at back of bottle : Blended from Gibbston Valley's Bendigo and Gibbston Valley vineyards. This is a full flavoured style with real intensity, length and elegance. Cellar between 5-10 years. Winemaker : Christopher Keys.
