Woodsy, hint of caramel sweetness, spicy, herbal slightly medicinal. Light, fresh, good berry fruit, fine stemmy herbal notes, nice balance, some dry tannin on finish.

Very floral on the nose, with deep black raspberry fruit edged in slight cough lozenge notes, picking up a hint of blue fruits with air as well as nice stemmy overtones. A bit chewy in the mouth with good acids, but this seems to be a bit soft-styled, with a nice forest floor underlay to the wild cherry fruit in the mouth, which turns flannelly and chewy on the modest finish. 88pts

Medium ruby colored, the 2006 Prima Donna Pinot Noir reveals an evolving dried cherry and mulberry character on the nose with some coffee, earth and clove hints. Medium bodied with medium-firm chewy tannins and great concentration, it has refreshin... Robert Parkers Wine Advocate.

Light nose and easy. Savoury though and no ersatz sweetness. Dry finish, no compromises. Dry finish and very appetising. Delicate. Zesty. 17.5/20 points Jancis Robinson. A Pinot Noir wine from Canterbury in New Zealand. 2006 Pegasus Bay Winery Pinot Noir Prima Donna 750ml

Fermented with 10% whole bunches and matured in 30% new French oak, the intellectual 2006 Pinot Noir has a very natural nose, less fruit-driven than expected with more woodland, tertiary scents. Very well-balanced on the palate, slightly grainy tanni... Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. A Pinot Noir wine from Wairarapa in New Zealand. 2006 Pegasus Bay Winery Pinot Noir 750ml

I'm not sure whether their secret is relatively old vines or low crop yields, perhaps both, but this wine delivers consistently concentrated and powerful wine every year. It's a dense, almost chewy Pinot Noir with an appealing rustic note, strong plu... Bob Campbell, MW. A Pinot Noir wine from Canterbury in New Zealand. 2006 Pegasus Bay Winery Pinot Noir 750ml
