The perfumed, floral 2019 Te Rehua Pinot Noir features scents of rose petals, red raspberries and tea leaves. Medium to full-bodied, it's wiry on the palate, with ample concentration and firm tannins, accentuated by bright acids. The finish ends up being taut and slightly astringent, in need of cellaring to reach its best.
A unique site-derived complexity and texture combined with black cherry and plum fruit along with tight savoury nuances of forest floor, black tea and liquorice. The inclusion of stems gives the wine an aromatic lift and the firm tannins are a hallmark of this block. It will continue to develop for up to 15 years.
