Martinborough Pinot Noir 2000 (New Zealand)

Price - $35.99 Size - 750 mL- Wines of the World Wine Tasting held on Saturday May 28, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs with Will Gillum.

The bottle claims that this pinot noir is done in the old world style. Will it live up to that claim? Has a deep red color with heavy legs. Earth and tobacco on the nose. Flavors of raspberries and cherries mix together to form excellent fruit flavors and depth. Ends pleasantly with a long earthy finish. Lives up to the old world claim and then some. Excellent! Grade: A
