title: Akarua 2012 Bannockburn Pinot Noir (Central Otago)
description: Alluring notes of Asian five spice and wet stone frame ripe cherry aromas in this medium-bodied wine. The texture is firm, becoming faintly dusty on the finish, but the wine is approachable now for its cherry fruit and appealing damp clay quality. Drink now–2018.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Bannockburn
