Roaring Meg Pinot Noir 2008 features in their recent list of best Pinot Noirs under US$25. They say:
"In general, New Zealand is fairly new to the international wine market, particularly when considering Pinot Noir. Because of the country’s low levels of sunshine, New Zealand did not consider Pinot Noir a viable grape until the early 1980s. Today, the fruit shows a full body in comparison to Pinot grapes from other regions, and the wines tend to mature earlier. On first smell, Mt. Difficulty’s Pinot will remind you of blackberries and tangy raspberry with a hint of licorice. Its velvety texture lightly touches your palate and balances well with the fine tannin structure. You may taste a hint of spice on the long finish"
They may not know much about the weather ine New Zealand, but they sure know a good Pinot when they taste one.
