{"product_id":"radford-central-otago-pinot-noir-2025","title":"Radford Central Otago Pinot Noir 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"An excellent bouquet filled with scents of site and ripe red berry fruits, a mineral earth quality suggesting baking spices and ark, some smoky wood and baking spices of clove and vanilla. Youthful, complex and enticing on the palate and equally enticing wine with core flavours of black cherry and dark-skinned plums, black currant and earth-smoke of dark soils and tone. The wood smoke and baking spice qualities push through the palate contrasted by the acid line and grab of tannins – in bundance. Well made, lengthy, new and vibrant with the best drinking from late 2026, even sometime in 2027 through 2034\" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDark cherry, wild blackberry and ripe Central Otago plum, layered with dried thyme, violets and subtle baking spice. Beneath the fruit sits a distinctive schist-derived minerality and savoury complexity. Deep and vibrant with rich Pinot Noir colour. Plush and expansive, with rich black cherry, raspberry compote and dark forest fruits framed by silky tannins and fine natural acidity. Generous and beautifully textured, while retaining freshness, aromatic lift and impressive detail through the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade with approximately 20% whole bunches and fermented naturally using indigenous vineyard and winery yeasts. Following pressing, the wine matured for approximately 15 months in seasoned oak barrels, preserving the purity and character of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 Central Otago growing season began with a challenging early-November frost before giving way to dry, settled and remarkably even conditions. Warm days and cool nights encouraged steady ripening while preserving natural acidity, colour and aromatic freshness. Stable autumn weather allowed harvest decisions to be guided by flavour and tannin maturity, resulting in a wine of purity, concentration, fine structure and clear vineyard definition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EuroVintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53100569461053,"sku":"RA2PNOIR25","price":269.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/RadfordCentralOtagoPinotNoirNV.jpg?v=1789678961","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/radford-central-otago-pinot-noir-2025","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
