| Tanzer Review: Good dark red. Dark cherry, bitter chocolate and allspice on the perfumed nose smells like a Dujac wine. Densely packed, broad and deep lush yet airy pinot without any undue weight. The red and darker fruit flavors are complemented by a deep smokiness and sexy brown spices. A wonderfully rich, complex New Zealand pinot with a very suave, long finish.
Other Reviews: The 2006 Block 3 Pinot Noir vanquished all opposition at a comprehensive blind comparison of Central Otago Pinot Noirs. A bewitching nose of red cherry, raspberry, lavender and honey, the palate is blessed with a natural sense of balance and elegance, building towards a crescendo of vibrant redberried fruits on the finish that has great delineation and poise. A bottle should be delivered on every doorstep in the Cote dOr! 95 points, Neal Martin |
