Attaboy

Title just about fits...Attaboy...
Ata Rangi Pinot Noir 2007
Martinborough, New Zealand
Unscrewed..and the delights to come spring from the bottle......off to get a pizza...and sit outside on a warm evening..with a slight breeze saying it is Pinot time...back home..we sit in the garden..the flowers and plants adding to the atmosphere...oh the wine.. yes...gorgeous nose..exotic...concentrated..wild fruits..thoughts of bramble bush scratches as a kid...smoky..truffles...the low yielding vintage has produced a more masculine style....on the palate it is intense..firm..but subtle...defying it's youth...easy to drink...but with an aura about it...the best New Zealand Pinot yet..
