Quartz Reef Bendigo Estate Pinot Noir 2018

This wine is bursting with juicy fruit, markedly in its nose, which is calling to mind of the region's Pinot noir.

Bold and deep wine with a concentrated purple hue, boasting a captivating aroma that combines the sweetness of raspberries and strawberries with a delicate note of vanilla. Upon sipping, the layers unfold with a delightful cohesion of raspberry, black currant, and a whisper of pepper, all harmoniously intertwined with a smooth, supple texture.

Intense and intricate Pinot Noir with a deep red hue, elevated by light nuances of wood spice and a undertone of smoke. The fruit is well-balanced, with red cherry and raspberry suggestions emerging over earthy tones, leather, and minerals. The lasting impression is smooth, with a light black pepper undertone. The tannins are well-structured and harmonious, with a silky mouthfeel that fades slowly pleasantly. A beautifully crafted Pinot Noir from a region known for its unique terroir, Central Otago in New Zealand. A 90/100 rating reflects the wine's extraordinary quality and value.
