"Appealing floral aroma with hints of cherry, savoury dried herbs and spicy oak on the palate. Charming and moderately complex wine with a seductively silken texture.

The 2018 Mountaineer Pinot Noir is made from pristine grapes that were hand harvested from a single Bendigo Site. The hotter than usual 2018 vintage led to an early picking of the fruit. Winemaking was very gentle, with a shorter time on skins and minimal additions has led to a wine of real purity and great intensity whilst perfectly balanced with bright red fruits and soft tannins.

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.
