with forest floor and mushroom flavors complementing vivid black cherries and sour cherries on the palate

grapefruit and pear with hints of apple blossom

silky tannins that seep into the deep fruit

a wine that has found the golden mean in its individual elements

2022 | Te Mata Estate Alma Pinot Noir | Hawke's Bay Sushi with forest floor and mushroomTinned red fruits and leafy Pinot aromas, ripe red cherry and plumper darker notes, with low level hints of pepper and spice. Ripe and dense with very good freshness. The palate is medium weight and juicy, a savoury vein lends structure, as does a little wood tannin and sap. Supple, complex and long, got us thinking of Saint Aubin.
