Great concentration with intricately woven layers of sweet red and blue/black fruit, dried herb and distinctive earthy flavours complementing a highly focused palate with great intensity and length

This award winning Pinot Noir is both sophisticated and “classic”, expressing intensity and poise from great sites in Central Otago.

The wine shows bright raspberry, pomegranate and red currant fruits as well as cherry pit and rose petals. The palate is fine and chewy with more red fruits as well as cinnamon, mace and clove characters. It is precise and well defined. While the wine is not intended for long term cellaring it will benefit from 3 to 5 years rest. 

Juicy red berries and a hint of spice dance on the palate, finishing smooth and elegant.

An average of 20% whole-bunch across multiple parcels. Some wines racked early, while others remain on lees until the last minute. After blending, there's a further month of maturation on light lees in reorganised oak before racking and bottling in-house, with no filtration.
 

Ripe berry, smoky plum, cherry and dark chocolate show on the palate with a long sweet fruit finish.
