Description

  • French oak
  • Plush red fruit
  • Juicy mouthfeel
  • Fine grained tannins

"Vibrant, tangy pinot noir with black cherry, cranberry, raspberry and a hint of floral flavours. A backbone of zesty acidity gives the wine energy and drive. A pinot with purity and character. Offers value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Dec 2020

A juicy and bright style of Central Otago Pinot Noir. Definitive of the Pisa subregion with plush red fruit on the palate, followed by gentle, fine grained tannins.

Sourced from blocks across the Pisa sub-region of Central Otago, these vines are renowned for giving bright, fresh and aromatic Pinot Noir wines, with silky tannins.

Hand-picked fruit was destemmed into fermenters before 3 days of cold soaking. The ferment took 7 days, with gentle plunging to balance the tannin extraction. The wine was pressed off the skins soon afterward in order to capture the bright fruit, before maturing in French oak barriques for 12-15 months before blending.
