Totally recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe winery writes: \"A full silky entry with dark plum, dark cherry, florals and forest floor notes. Concentrated and complex with good minerality, ample fine grained tannins and a persistent finish. Firm acid backbone which melds well with the dark fruit profile.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBob Campbell MW: \"Fragrant pinot noir with floral\/rose petal and berry flavours that contrasts with a structure of fine, sappy tannins. Although the wine is relatively light-bodied the tannic backbone suggests that it has good cellaring potential.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCameron Douglas MS: \"Great colour intensity with a red and ruby core and light pink hued rim. Aromas of a bright, fresh, youthful and varietal wine with boysenberry and raspberry scents laced with a soft lees and savoury frame, some youthful reduction and barrel spices. Complex and enticing. A dry wine on the palate with lots of tension and poise, plush ripe red berries reflect the bouquet plus plum and rose. Fine tannins and acidity frame the palate nicely, a savoury layer and dried herb. Best drinking from 2027 through 2034+.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 13.3% \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 750ml\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion: \u003c\/strong\u003eCentral Otago, New Zealand\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Easy Tiger Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50297525502240,"sku":"5773","price":209.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/0335\/5546\/files\/GrasshopperRockCentralOtagoPinotNoir2022_6x750ml_056a5c30-2940-4a8a-8dc6-d5bc95d7d28a.jpg?v=1783472708","url":"https:\/\/easytiger.co.nz\/products\/grasshopper-rock-central-otago-pinot-noir-2022-6x750ml","provider":"Easy Tiger","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
