Score 92/100 · Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate
On the herbal-floral side of the spectrum, the 2016 Te Rehua Pinot Noir offers hints of rosemary, thyme and rose petals in addition to notes of red plums and dusty earth. It's medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a long, red-fruit finish. While it doesn't have the robustness of previous vintages, it's still a charming, attractive wine for relatively early consumption. Feb 2018, www.robertparker.com
