1 x Craggy Range Te Muna Single Vineyard Martinborough Pinot Noir 2024

Awarded 95/100 Points: Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
Awarded 93/100 Points: Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Taut, ripe, textured and delicious, a wine that reflects both the vineyard and region. A focused palate of dark cherry and baked red berry fruits, some dark plum and fruit spice, balanced measure of oak and lengthy finish. The mineral layer suggests baked brown and stone soil. Well made with plenty of length and definition. Best from 2027 through 2031+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

"The 2023 Te Muna Road Vineyard Pinot Noir is powerful but framed within an ethereal structure of ductile tannin. The fruit is eminently red, and the wine feels elegantly integrated at all levels. It's a lovely expression of Martinborough, and it manages restraint and measure at every opportunity. The acidity is fine and saline, the balance is there and the oak merely supports. There is a savory herbal nuance through the finish, but it all works. Recommended" Robert Parker

Bright, deep scarlet in colour. Evocative floral aromatics of lavender and jasmine, with notes of sweet spice. Distinctly Te Muna, it is so elegant and poised. A very fine, ethereal palate. The silk laden tannins amalgamate with little resistance, giving incredible flow. A supremely elegant release.

1 x Quartz Reef Single Vineyard Bendigo Pinot Noir 2022

Awarded 95/100 Points: Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Awarded 95/100 Points: James Suckling, Jamessuckling.com
Awarded 93/100 Points: Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate

"This is very structured for a 2022 vintage, with fine, linear tannins that run the length of the wine, giving backbone, focus and a tight fruit structure. It's very typical for a Central Otago pinot. So much clarity and focus to this" James Suckling, Jamessuckling.com

"The 2022 Single Vineyard Pinot Noir nose is electric, with blood orange and brine, cherry pip and raspberry, cranberry and caperberry. In the mouth, the wine is energetic and spicy, with a long spool of tannin and fruit entwined through the finish. It's floral and bloody as well. It's an utterly lovely and wonderful wine with a super pleasant aftertaste that lingers" Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate

Immerse yourself in the captivating aromas of chestnuts, licorice, and eucalyptus, complemented by delicate toffee notes and a subtle hint of pepper. Experience a well-balanced palate that seamlessly blends fruit and tannins. Discover the elegant interpretation of dark cherry and sweet-tart flavours, enticing you to savour every sip of this remarkable Pinot Noir. Organic.

1 x Monte Christo Winery Central Otago Pinot Noir 2023

Awarded 94/100 Points & 5 Stars: Candice Chow, Wine Chat
Awarded 94/100 Points: Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
Awarded 94/100 Points: Halliday Wine Companion
Awarded 93/100 Points: Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Awarded 92/100 Points & 4 Stars: Stephen Wong, The Real Review

"An excellent regional expression of 2023, fermented with 11% whole bunch, gentle and fine palate with ripe fruit, spice and depth, layering lacy acidity and dusty fine tannins. Harmonious and enticing, a lot to love" Candice Chow, Wine Chat

"Very bright with a ruby core and purple-pink rim leads to a bouquet of vibrant dark fleshed cherry, raspberry and savoury dried herb and barrel spices. Youthful, fresh and very engaging. A youthful, taut wine touches the palate first with tension and poise held in place by the acidity and seam of newish French oak. Tannins layer in mouthfeel with a fine grained texture, the core fruit flavours deliver contrast and varietal highlights. A floral seam and mineral character adding breadth and complexity. A delicious wine that is drinkable today though best in your cellar with ideal drinking from 2027 through 2037" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2024

An enticing Pinot Noir, firm yet  elegant, with red and black cherries, plum, raspberry, black tea and dried floral notes.
