Mt Difficulty Pipeclay Terrace Pinot Noir 2007

A powerful, lush Central Otago red with densely packed, cherryish, plummy flavours, spicy and long. It is grown on a steep, relatively hot slope at Bannockburn, with bony, gravelly soils. The full-coloured 2007, matured for 14 months in French oak barriques, was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Described by the winery as ‘distinctively masculine’, it is sturdy, very ripe and sweet-fruited, with a strong surge of plum, spice and licorice flavours, braced by firm tannins.
