Slightly herbal, lightly astringent, dense, tart fruit. Lovely wine (whole black sea bass ready to hop on the grill in back)

Somewhat underpowered compared to most Otago Pinots. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing but lacked a long finish. I have had better Peregrines. Spectacular winery if ever you get the chance to visit.

Dark and supple, yet vibrantly structured.

May have been a little past it’s prime. Heavier then expected, mixed red and black fruit. Some tannins, from oak use? or whole cluster? Not sure.

Very expressive tart red fruit with fresh thyme, rosemary, and wild mushrooms! Delicious!

I really like this...For me, I feel like the waves the "Central Otago Pinot Noir" banner high and proud. Textbook.

£20 black berry aroma good Pinot taste. Nice length on the finish. Not value price point would be £12-15. Better than some new world Pinot.

Quality Pinot. Not as earthy as others from Otago. Deep wine, full of fruit and lovely on the nose.

Thought I'd like better than I do based on previous vintages. Nose is great, ripe red fruit and substantial earth. Palate lacks length and depth.
