Description

  • Subtle oak
  • Red cherries & plum
  • Violet & almond
  • Fine polished tannins

"Pristine and gorgeously fruited, the wine shows Black Doris plum, violet, olive and almond notes on the nose, followed by a silky-smooth palate delivering supple texture and fine polished tannins. Elegant yet flavoursome with a lingering velvety finish. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2021

Medium coloured, this wine has a garnet core and a red rim. High toned floral notes, red cherries, strawberries, hints of tamarillo and a lovely background of subtle oak. Medium bodied, with firm, yet fine grained tannins and masses of sweet fruit in the mid palate, finishing. Already approachable, but we expect this wine to develop for a number of years.

‘Razorback’ is a word that evokes images of rugged peaks, and a harsh, but beautiful, landscape. Central Otago in other words! This year the wine is based on a single parcel of fruit from a Clutha vineyard, in the Cromwell Basin, with smaller components from Clyde and Alexandra vineyards. The parcels were separately cool-fermented, with daily plunging, followed by a few weeks maceration in tank before going into oak for about 10 months. The final blend was assembled prior to bottling on November 25th.
