Devil's Staircase Central Otago Pinot Noir 2022

Description

Cherry, Plum, Unoaked

The aromas are practically immoral, full of black Doris plums, blueberries and dark cherries. Very fruity, rich and supple with long smooth finish and soft tannins.

Our Devil’s Staircase wines are inspired by the winding road leading from Queenstown to Kingston along the shores of Lake Wakatipu. Sourced from several Central Otago vineyards, the Devil’s Staircase Pinot Noir takes the willing down into the realm of decadence and Bacchanalian delights.

Here, everything is pleasure spiced up with a bit of naughty. The unrelenting Central Otago environment tortures the vines whose twisted limbs produce a wine worthy of absolution; strong and sensual with lashings of dark fruit, sinfully succulent and devilishly good.

18-25 days on skins. Rapid warm ferments, matured in tank to retain bright fruit. No oak influence.

Food Pairing: Perfect with barbequed meat.
