Pegasus Bay Reserve Prima Donna Pinot Noir 2012

It is deep ruby in colour, with a complex and compelling boquet full of pomegranate, cherry, vanilla, chocolate and spice.

There is also a pleasing savouriness, offering up notes of game, mushroom and thyme. The palate is concentrated and rich, with fine grained tannins that add texture and weight.

Complementing this is a core of refreshing minerality that gives the wine a lively tension, resulting in superb strucutre and length.

While ready to drink on release it can be expected to cellar well and evolve gracefully for many years.
