Pokeno Discovery ‘Bourbon, Oloroso and PX Cask’ Single Malt 700ml
Produced entirely from New Zealand ingredients, and distilled, matured and bottled at their state-of-the-art distillery, the Pōkeno range of single malts honours the pure spirit of Aotearoa New Zealand.
A marriage of spirit fully aged in first fill bourbon, oloroso and PX sherry casks, then finished together in cask for a final period of maturation.
Black forest gateau, cinnamon and ripe cherry flavours overlay dark chocolate notes and a hint of sweet citrus to deliver a rich, smooth and incredibly long finish.
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
