Elegant, sophisticated aromas seamlessly combine refined, jammy, red-fruit (raspberry, red-cherry) perfume with vanilla chocolate \u0026amp; sweet spice notes. Fresh, mouth-watering acidity lifts plumy red-fruit \u0026amp; mulberry flavors. The texture is incredibly fine, silky \u0026amp; chocolatey. The palate is rich \u0026amp; rounded with warming alcohol balanced by the fruit. The finish is long \u0026amp; wonderfully harmonious.\" -\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e02\/21 DCAMW\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langtons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49613363773742,"sku":"SK31488692","price":285.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/821_FELTON_ROAD_Block_5_Pinot_Noir__Central_Otago_2015_Bottle.jpg?v=1787211791"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/collections\/new-zealand-central-otago-pinot-noir.oembed?page=4","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
