From a vineyard in the Omaka Valley, the 2014 Raupo Creek Pinot Noir spent 18 months in 13% new French oak. It's medium ruby in hue, showing toasty, nutty accents to its ripe cherry fruit. This medium-bodied, moderately complex wine looks to be relatively early-maturing and is already drinking well, the silky tannins adding a pleasant dimension on the palate and finish.
