A New Zealand benchmark from Lake Wanaka in Central Otago. The farm voice of a distinct parcel of land: Rippon. The north-facing escarpment forms the meeting point of terminal moraines and coarse gravels, all based in schist, on which some of the region's earliest vines were planted.

product description
Rippon "Rippon" Mature Vine Pinot Noir 2020
Reviews
James Suckling (JamesSuckling.com): 97/100. Extremely perfumed with a pretty ripeness and clarity, offering plums and al-dente strawberries. Some cantaloupe, too. It's medium- to full-bodied with juicy fruit that's lovely and open. You want to drink it now. And do. Crunchy yet velvety and caressing in the mouth-feel from the lovely, open tannins. .... Best in a year or two, but right on.
Tasting note
Layers of softly silky, mineral-edged flavours of red fruits, plums, cherries are nuanced with spice and herbal notes. Juicy, pure and mouthwatering on the palate with fine-grained tannins that lead to the long, sustained finish.

Vineyard site: Lake Wanaka, Central Otago, New Zealand. Rippon, the west boad of Roy's Bay, Lake Wanaka. Rippon's north-facing escarpment forms the meeting point of terminal moraines and coarse gravels; all based in schist. Rippon, a wine issued from all of the fully developed Pinot Noir vines, is considered the farm voice of this distinct parcel of land.Winemaking:
Picked by hand into small, 10kg cases allowing the fruit to arrive at
the winery's sorting table undamaged and intact.This wine represents many small parcels of different clones, vine ages and
micro-sites within a single Vineyard: Rippon. They were picked and fermented separately in 13, 2-tonne
stainless-steel fermenters.
Each parcel is fermented and matured apart before blending. The winery's resident yeast population (non-inoculated) completed cuvasion in 14-28 days. The ferments reached
maximum temperatures of 13-29°C Celsius.
Total time of skin contact: 14-28 days, depending on parcel.
12 months of new (17%) to 4 year old French oak barrels. The malolactic fermentation went through unaided (non-inoculated) in springtime; it was then racked back into barrel and allowed a second winter in barrel before being run directly into bottle without filtering or fining. Total Time in Barrel: 18 months.
