Rocky Point Otago Pinot Noir 2005

Was please to see this available again, as the 2004 was a great value wine. Opened to a soft array of sour cherries, strawberry, sap, spice and some herbal notes. On the palate it seemed a little lighter than the 2004, but still fine tannins and nice sour finish. Certainly didn't have as much weight, and perhaps a little less complex than the previous vintage, but still very fine drinking.
50+4+13+16+8 = 91/100
