Description
"The wine offers delightfully appealing aromas of dark cherry, spiced plum, thyme, almond and subtle game on the nose. The palate is succulent and plump with silky texture and elegant savoury nuances, beautifully framed by fine, polished tannins. The wine is immediately attractive, finishing long and smooth. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2018
With pristine fruit, The Mountaineer Pinot Noir is immediately attractive with fresh herbs accompanied by spiced plum and red cherry on the nose. Approachability and balance are the driving forces with elegant savoury and red berries notes. With subtle complexity this wine is warm and smooth with good length and finish.
The first in the new collection by Mount Micheal Wines, The Mountaineer 2016 Pinot Noir pays homage to the pioneering spirit and sense of adventure displayed by mountain climbers confronting the forces of nature and celebrating the beauty and grandeur of the New Zealand Southern Alps. The preparation, passion and commitment necessary to grow and make Pinot Noir in Central Otago mirrors the challenges faced by these pioneering mountaineers.
The Mountaineer Pinot Noir is crafted from premium Central Otago fruit, sourced from a single vineyard selected for its bright fruit and balance. Share in the spirit of The Mountaineer with friends on your next adventure.
