Frodo's rustic presentation is a charming departure from the usual wine service. The strawberry rose jam served alongside his garden gloves adds a whimsical touch, but the strawberry jelly sandwich on wheat with pencil lead provides a sweet and savory contrast.

Just right balanced, fruit-forward wine that's sure to please on a Thursday night dinner. A exceptional introduction to the evening's culinary delights, and a pleasure to share with friends. Looking forward to comparing it to the renowned New Zealand pinots.

Inviting wine, but the Dog Point stands out as the true champion.

Inviting wine, but the Dog Point stands out as the true champion.
The Better Half Pinot Noir receives mixed reviews, with some praising its fruit-forward balance and unique volcanic ash notes, while others criticize thin fruit and stemmy characteristics. While enthusiasts appreciate its smooth texture and intriguing complexity, comparisons to Dog Point suggest room for improvement. Presentation elements like whimsical pairings occasionally overshadow taste experiences.
Displaying a vibrant ruby hue, The Better Half Pinot Noir offers an enticing bouquet of ripe red cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle hints of forest floor. On the palate, the wine reveals a harmonious balance of bright acidity and supple tannins, underscored by layers of red currant and a whisper of clove spice. The mid-palate is elegantly textured, leading to a refined finish with lingering notes of cranberry and a touch of minerality. This Pinot Noir exemplifies the finesse and complexity characteristic of its region, making it a commendable choice for those seeking a nuanced expression of this varietal.
