New Zealand Pinot Noir

Just as he was about to leave for holiday in St Lucia, Keith Ellis offered us an event that sounded very interesting indeed but unfortunately he did not have time to source more wines, arrange a date and venue nor cost the event before we went to print. However in view of our re-arranged Fine Red Burgundy from the Vintages of 1982, 1983, 1985 on 10^th May, we felt that it would be very interesting to include this event at the end of our 2^nd Quarter Programme. It is unlikely that Keith will be able to source NZ Pinot Noir that old but he will attempt to acquire something aged so that you can see how top class NZ Pinot Noir can age very well.

The wines Keith has acquired so far are as follows: 

2007 CARRICK WINERY, Pinot Noir       
2008 CARIRICK WINERY, Crown and Cross Pinot Noir,      
2009 URLAR, Pinot Noir
2010 TRINITY HILL, Hawkes Bay Pinot Noir     
2010 QUARTZ REEF, Pinot Noir

We are looking to hold the event the week of 18^th June but as yet we have no specific day.  The venue is likely to be either The Lansdowne Club or The Hilton Doubletree (formerly Hesperia).

If you would like to attend this event please mark your booking form so that Keith can gauge the degree of interest and acquire more wines on his return from sunnySt   Lucia. Details of the event will be emailed in the next 2-3 weeks so please save that week in your diaries.
