A mild disappointment from one of New Zealand's storied wineries, the 1999 Pinot Noir seems a touch overripe, with aromas and flavors of black cherries and plum pudding. A touch of alcoholic warmth shows up on the finish. 1 Note

Boasts a flamboyant bouquet of blackberries and black pepper upon opening, then settles down into a medium-bodied wine with nice density and flavor persistence. There's no question that it's well balanced and has a lovely nose, but this is not a great wine, merely very good. 1 Note

Seems to have a bit of a volatile acidity issue, with lifted aromas and a slightly pickle-y taste that distract from the cherry fruit. 1 Note

Starts with slightly garlicky scents that never really blow off, then delivers tart cherry fruit flavors that turn herbal and drying on the finish. 1 Note

Blends cola and cherry in a medium-bodied format that turns a bit lean and astringent on the finish. 1 Note

This wine’s bouquet, redolent of roses and ripe cherries, immediately grabs your attention. Yet it’s not a heavyweight, playing off faintly herbal notes and a silky-smooth mouthfeel instead of raw power. Nicely balanced. 1 Note

Lush and supple, boasting ample cherry and vanilla aromas and flavors. It’s easily approachable, yet still shows decent complexity in a slightly herbal-briary nuance. The “G” stands for gravel, which in this vintage produced a less powerful wine than the “C” (clay) bottling. 1 Note

A hint of green herbs on the nose gives way to more generous flavors of grapefruit and peach. The fleshy midpalate and lime backbone bode well for aging. As an example, the ’94 and ’95 are drinking well now. 1 Note

Herbal, with green aromas that come awfully close to green bean. Earthy and mushroomy on the palate, with a short finish. 1 Note
