Rippon 'Emma's Block' Mature Vines Pinot Noir 2011
central otago,
new zealand
$230
Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2011 Emma's Block Pinot Noir reveals quite an earthy, savory nose to begin then gives way to an aromatic core of kirsch, cranberries and mulberries with underlying cedar and cinnamon stick hints. Medium-bodied and tightly knit in the mouth, it presents a good amount of earth-laced fruit layers with a medium level of chewy tannins and lively acid before finishing with very good length. Drink it 2014 to 2020+. 91+ Points, Drink 2014-2020+, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 31st Oct 2013, The Wine Advocate
