Powerful and complete, that's how Maude describe our 2022 Pinot Noir.
Layers of dark Central Otago berry fruits, hints of violet, clove and cinnamon aromas are locked into this wine which screams of promise.
The mouthfeel is instantly generous with the depth and breadth of flavour quite astounding.
Tannins like velvet, guide the flavours through the palate giving structure and carry.
Careful cellaring for 5 years will reward.
Vinification:
Hand harvested from our Sitting Bull and Queensberry vineyards in Central Otago.
Fermented very traditionally in open topped tanks, hand plunged, indigenous yeasts with a portion of whole bunch included in each fermenter. 18 – 28 days on skins for tannin development prior to pressing.
Maturation in French barriques (30% new) for 10 months before bottling.
As we prefer not to fine or filter our Pinot Noirs, this wine may form a sediment over time.
Decanting is recommended to ensure clarity.

Because we offer a same day delivery service and you have ordered more than 1.5L, legally we first need to verify that you are over 18 years of age. More info at bottom of this form...(we suggest registering as this is then only required once)
