AMISFIELD ROCKY KNOLL PINOT NOIR 2006

5 Stars Michael Cooper's Buyers Guide to New Zealand Wines
Deep ruby, it's a strikingly rich, complex and harmonious wine, notably concentrated, sweet-fruited and savoury, with supple, silky tannins giving instant appeal.

5 Stars, Yvonne Lorkin, Bay of Plenty Times
The benefits of a bit of bottle age are blatantly obvious here as the wine is powerfully perfumed with something resembling cinnamon and clove sprinkled over a slice of rich black forest gateau.
