Mt Difficulty Pinot Noir reveur The palate holds a coreA Central Otago classic from the Bannockburn 'dress circle', Mt Difficulty Pinot Noir is the benchmark by which others are judged. Deep colour with ample dark and rich fruit in the jubey pastille mode. Excellent texture in the mouth with pleasing chewiness. Quite complex and very silky but with loads of energy; the outstanding Bannockburn fruit drives this wine.
