The Holy Grail, Atlantis, the Fountain of Youth– they all pale in comparison to our search for the illusive Pinot Noir from New Zealand under $25 that is representative of the area and delivers for the price.  Finally.  We present the Fire Road Pinot Noir.   
Nice notes of charred oak with red berry fruit and tar. Touches of citrus, good acidity, and nice minerality adding complexity. Now, where is that Yeti we’ve heard so much about...
