Description
Pure Gold Medal Air NZ Wine Awards + 93/100 Points
Pinot Noir release from one of our top Central Otago suppliers. Crafted by the region’s modest magician star creator of this fickle grape variety, it’s a welcome discovery. It’s available to Pinot Noir lovers for a limited time with limited volume, at this special release price.
93pts (5 Stars)" A beautifully composed pinot, the elegantly fragrant bouquet shows dark cherry, plum, floral and cedar characters with a touch of spice complexity. The palate is concentrated and rounded, and displays silky texture and fine, polished tannins. The wine is refined and flavoursome at the same time, and offers gorgeous drinking. At its best: now to 2019." Wine Orbit
Wine making notes:
Hand harvested fruit was destemmed into stainless steel tanks to undergo a brief period of cold soak, before being inoculated with selected wine yeasts to carry out the fermentation. The wine was aged in French Oak barriques for 10 months, of which 29% was new oak. The resulting wine is vibrant and plush with great Pinosity and lasting length.

A wonderful wine from a boutique winery. Although a "mystery" wine, the wording pointed me to the supplier - and I was right!

The Archangel is very typically Central Otago Pinot, rich complex flavours and therefore very highly rated value for money.

Lovely drop!!
Maree - 10/10/2016
Quite disappointed; normally the mystery wines are outstanding!! Not a clean taste or rich in flavour as expected from a Central Otago pinot noir. Won't be reordering
