"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. A stylish, accessible Pinot Noir with a distinctive character. Offers good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Mar 2020

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 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.
