"Even ruby-red colour with some depth, lighter on the rim. The nose is well-proportioned with good depth of savoury dark-red cherry and berry fruits melded with dark herbs and subtle complexing earthy elements. This has good intensity and layers of interest. Medium-full bodied, the palate has sweet and luscious fruit, with flavours of savoury dark-red cherry and berryfruit with a complex layering of dark herbs and soft earthy notes. The fruit is up-front, showing immediate depth and intensity and is underlined by fine-grained tannin extract with integrated acidity. The flavours carry along a positive line, leading to a lingering finish of red fruits and herbs. This is a sweet and juicy dark cherry and berry fruited Pinot Noir with complex herb notes, intensity and depth, all underlined by fine tannin extract. Match with wild duck and pork, and game dishes over the next 4-5 years. Fruit from the ‘Muirkirk’, ‘Morrison’ and the Montero ‘Pisa Terrace’ vineyard, indigenous yeast fermented to 13.5% alc. with 5% w/ole bunches, the wine aged 10 months in 15% new oak. Certified BioGro organic" Raymond Chan, Oct 2017

"Nursed from the vineyard into the bottle by the talented twosome of Duncan Forsyth and Anna Riederer, this pinot noir is beautifully rich and bursting with hedgerow fruits, 5-spice, sandalwood and cocoa and tree bark.  Complex and mouthfilling, it’s like a leather-laden overload of earthiness and wild cherries" Yvonne Lorkin, Sep 2017

This second label from Mount Edward wines is as funky within as it is on the outside. A smart blend of estate grapes offers contracted fruit flavours that are sweet & juicy whilst a streak of the savoury keeps it all grounded. A great early drinker. TED Pinot Noir 2016 is organic, soft, supple and Central Otago delicious, everything you want in a Pinot Noir. Awesome value and just the ticket when needing something new and special.
