Gypsy Dancer
Thursday night in a restaurant, my wife and I had a bottle of 2004 Gypsy
Dancer pinot noir from the central Otago in NZ. The wine had a good nose
and was quite spicy and fruity. On Dale's scale I would give it at least a
B+. The restaurant price was $48 US. When I spoke to the owner/sommelier
about it, he said he got the last cases allocated to Arizona, and he would
not be able to get any more because the winery was going out of business.
Can you, Lord St Helier, or any other Kiwi confirm or deny that for the NZ
facility? They also have an Oregon winery. I went to their web site this
morning and there was no indication of any such disappearance. I am
interested in acquiring some of the Otago wine for home consumption if
possible. TIA.
