Description

  • Dark cherry & plum
  • Lifted florals
  • Savoury notes
  • Round & silky

"Varietal, ripe, fleshy, fruity and floral. Aromas and flavours of plums and dark cherries, there’s a fine mineral and gentle savoury complexity, scents of fresh red rose and pommegranate. Satin textured with fine fruit-led tannins, a decent acid line and with a naturally lower alcohol there’s an eveness across the palate promoting flavour and texture. A wine that can be served cool and suits many lightwieght through moderately spiced dishes. Best drinking from day of purchase and through 2026+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Feb 2022

Full of bright, red summer fruits with lifted floral notes, followed through by a rich palate with dark cherry, raisins and a nutty, savoury undertone. Impecabbly structured, deliciously round and silky - perfect to drink on its own or with savoury dishes.

Our Pinot Noir is produced from our North and Middle Wairau Valley vineyards, planted over 20 years ago - very special sites composed of alluvial river terrace soils, crushed stones and clay. Simply put, we’ve perfected a delicious full flavoured wine by slowing the grape plant’s ability to make sugar but not its ability to make flavour. And it’s all done in the vineyard. No chemistry tricks or genetic engineering wizardry here. Just sustainably grown, naturally produced lower alcohol wine.
