Description

  • French oak
  • Dark fruit
  • Warm spice
  • Savoury finish

"It's delightfully fruited and nicely lifted on the nose, showing sweet cherry, plum, clove and roasted nut aromas. The palate delivers juicy fruit intensity together with supple mouthfeel and fine tannins, making it harmonious and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2024

"Varietal, fruity and developing nicely with a bouquet of red berries and plums, spice and a simple elegance. Dry on the palate with flavours of cherries and plums, quince paste and baking spices, and a whisper of wood smoke. Tannin are fine adding texture and mouthfeel along with the acid line, fruit flavours reflect the bouquet. Well-made and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

"Light ruby-red with a dark garnet hue, slightly lighter on the rim. The nose is gently full, with aromas of cherry, blackberry, cinnamon bark, mushroom and dried herbs. Medium-bodied, aromas of cherry and blackberry intertwined with strawberry, cinnamon, vanilla, cola and dried herbs. The fresh acidity lifts the savoury details, and a light tannin grip flows gently to a rich, spiced finish" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Mar 2025

Full bodied and packed with flavour, this Pinot Noir is fruit forward with rich dark fruits and warm cumin spice. The structure is elegant and silky, leading to a long savoury finish.

Fruit sourced from a selection of vineyard sites a within the Southern Valleys sub-region of Marlborough. An area with low cropping vineyards and a longer ripening period, contributes to this wine’s distinct tannins and concentrated fruit flavours. At the winery, the grapes were separated into small vats for cold soaking prior to fermentation, allowing the extraction of soft tannins and colour at the juice stage. The juice was fermented with cultured yeasts offering a wide variety of flavours and helping to attain better texture. During fermentation, the skins and juice were hand-plunged on average two times per day. When finished the wine was taken straight to a combination of stainless-steel tanks and new French oak where it sat for 7 months. The wine was then gently racked, blended, and bottled filtered and fined.

This wine is a true gem & a real surprise. The earthy fruits give this wine a dark fruit taste that lingers with every sip.

Tried this for the first time with last night's dinner. Absolutely delightful. I have tasted Pinot Noir twice this price that haven't matched this wine. Well done this winery!

Robyn - 06/05/2024

OMG I was so delighted to see this wine was from my favourite winery, & it's living up to my expectations. A lovely Pinot Noir & at an affordable price. I reordered.

Lesley - 18/02/2024

Excellent drop and great value

Geoff - 11/12/2023

Very good, not quite up to the [mystery wine] Pinot standard but then the price was very good.

Valerie - 07/03/2025

Lovely drop. I want more!

Katrina - 17/02/2025

lots of flavour and very mellow, a nice drop to share with friends

Incredible value for money, this Pinot Noir while not being the most substantial of wines is nonetheless bursting with varietal flavours, generous on the nose and excellent length on the palate. It would leave most low to sub-$20 pinots for dead.

john - 12/02/2025

Inoffensive.

Trevor - 12/02/2025

Pleased, good value

Graham - 08/02/2025

Pam - 18/10/2024

Great recommendation by a knowledgeable lady

Peter - 08/07/2024

Not sure on this one, the bouquet is a little odd, but the taste doesn't reflect that and is still reasonably drinkable and was at competitive price for NZ pinot noir. Usually, I am a lot happier with wine from this winery. Maybe the next glass will be better, and it just needed to have a good breath!

Nicki - 29/04/2024

Easy to drink but nothing startling - reflected in the price I guess. Won't be ordering more.
