Tasting Notes
An exceptional wine that is sure to impress any Pinot Noir lover. Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Bendigo region of Central Otago, New Zealand, this wine is a true expression of the unique terroir of the region.
On the nose, this wine exhibits aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant, with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with flavors of ripe red fruit, earthy notes, and a subtle oakiness. The tannins are soft and silky, giving the wine a long, smooth finish.
The grapes used to make this wine were carefully selected and handpicked, and the wine was aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, giving it a beautiful complexity and depth of flavor.

Scores
96 / 100"This has an intense, complex nose of charred bark, dark cherries, black raspberries, cumin, spice box, iodine and slate. It's medium- to full-bodied with a firm, sleek tannin structure providing plenty of support to the dark fruit. Tight and mineral at the end. Better after 2023."
