These are some of our finest vintages, bottle aged in our cellar in Wanaka, New Zealand ready to drink today.
This stock is in very small supply.
A1 2015 Pinot Noir
Moderate garnet with a mauve edge.
Medium intensity plum fruit with subtle cinnamon spice lift defines the nose. The concentration of the primary fruit aromatics builds giving dimension. There is a background nuance of licorice and lavender florals, which elegantly fold into a gentle gamey bouquet.
Generous and succulent with a supple tannin texture, the palate has a silky flow with juicy acidity giving impressive length and persistence. Brightness and approachability are the driving force of this wine, however a hint of complexity we have come to expect from this vineyard adds a layer of real and intriguing character to the fruit depth.
It’s drinking pretty bloody well right now but it won’t disappoint with a few years stashed away. Cellar for 3 to 6 years.
Food – Order heaps of Pot Stickers, Dumpling and Siu Mai with pork as the common ingredient. That’ll leave them happy.
A2 2013 Pinot Noir
