2010 Main Divide Pinot Noir

main divide pinot noirThe second label of Pegasus Bay and quite a step down in quality. It’s still a good wine if not one that suits my stylistic bent.

Malteser oak, dark cherries and plums. Very ripe fruit matched to bubbly acidity that sits slightly apart. Sweet spices and a hint of orange rind. Nearing full-bodied and showing a little warmth. I can see some people liking it. 89 Good
