There is no doubt in my mind that if this were a Central Otago Pinot Noir you would pay £18 no problem! Don't let the drab label fool you this is the real deal. Rich, meaty and complex. Drinking beautifully now.

Tasted a whole host of Macons to finally discover this wine. A little stunner, soft and creamy but with tart acidity on the finish. The length of this wine and the way it continues to develop on the palate is amazing.
