Description

A wonderful expression of Central Otago Pinot Noir. A round, luscious and fruit forward Pinot Noir with lots of flavours and lovely soft tannins. Bursting with floral aromas and red cherry perfume. Rich and juicy with wild raspberry, black cherry and sweet spice flavours.

A slow start to the season with a cool, windy spring with the usual spring frosts, followed by a hot dry summer. A long autumn with beautiful warm days that gave lovely extended ripening.

Fruit was 100% hand harvested from Central Otago sub-regions (7% Bendigo, 51% Pisa, 42% Gibbston). It was then 100% destemmed before spending 10 months in older French Oak. Recomended cellaring for this wine is between 2 – 4 years.

Food pairing: Beef brisket croquettes with Asian coleslaw

A very good central Pinot Noir for the money. Medium-bodied and slightly fruity but with plenty of the Otago character at about half the price of the premium Pinots.
