New Zealand Pinot Noir just keeps getting better and better compared with even a few years ago. This example from the Central Otago estate Mohua is delicate and light on its feet, a bargain at less than $20. Its exuberant berry flavors tempered with herbal notes make for delicious drinking.
It’s a great bottle to have on hand for a dinner invitation or an impromptu supper at home — a couple of lamb chops on the grill, a cheese and spinach pie, vegetable casserole or a rotisserie chicken.
