Reviews
Decanter: 96/100. (Tasted by: Emma Jenkins MW (at New Zealand Pinot Noir: Vintage report tasting, 03 Oct 2024)
Part of New Zealand Pinot Noir: Vintage report and 40 new releases rated
). While fairly closed at first, this soon opens up with opulently perfumed nose, layered red/black fruits, florals, spice, a lot of earth and vinosity here too, hard to tease it all apart both on the nose and palate. Textural and compact with wonderfully integrated fruit/oak tannins and a spine of bright acidity, this is clearly built for the long haul while offering a lot of joy already. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2035.
Tasting note
Stylish wine with lots of complexity. Deep in colour with dark cherry, plum and floral aromas. Exceptional depth and complexity with cherry, plum and sweet spice on the palate. Full-bodied with a finely textured finish.

Additional information

Wine region: Bendigo, Central Otago, New Zealand. With a vine density of 5,000 - 8,000 plants per hectare on grafted pinot noir clones, planted in 1998. The soils on the beautiful north facing slope are Waenga fine sandy loam and Letts steepland with an elevation from 217 – 264 metres, on 44.55° south.Vintage: The season started with mild temperatures throughout Spring, an earlier than usual budburst and rainfall in late Nov/early Dec providing good levels of moisture. We were challenged with two severe cold fronts during budburst and flowering which despite frost fighting efforts resulted in a smaller crop. Warm and settled weather followed producing overall a hotter than usual growing season. With veraison starting in the last week of January, we began (to expect) yet another early harvest. The 2019 vintage impression is extremely good quality
Winemaking: Hand-picked on the 28th March. Cold soaked for 4 days before indigenous yeast fermentation kicked in with 16% whole bunch. Gentle hand plunging throughout ferment, followed by post-fermentation maceration of 9 days to ensure optimum fruit and tannin balance. Total time on skin; 26 days. Drained directly into selected French oak barriques (100% one year old) where the wine aged for 14 months during which wild malolactic fermentation occurs.
