"A delicious New Zealand Pinot Noir with complex, spicy flavors and an irresistibly velvety texture!"
“Fragrant aromas of wild raspberries, violets, orange peel, and cinnamon. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine features fine tannins and lively acidity, revealing notes of strawberries, cranberries, pencil shavings, and blood oranges. A tightly structured wine with a refined profile. Ready to drink now or for aging.” (James Suckling 2024) • Screw cap

About the wine:
On the nose, aromas of red berries, saddle leather, and black cherry. A beautiful texture throughout the mid-palate; lively fruity notes, delicious aromas of hibiscus tea, and a mineral intensity.

About the wine:
A bright red color with ruby highlights reveals a fresh and elegant bouquet, dominated by characteristic varietal notes of cherry, violet flowers, blackcurrant, and rose, followed by hints of delicate spices and earthy smoke. On the palate, this is a delightful wine, endowed with exuberant freshness and texture. Dry, it offers an abundance of fine, polished tannins, medium-to-high acidity, and an aromatic core that mirrors the bouquet. Persistent, with a certain youthful tension, it is balanced and well-structured. Best enjoyed from late 2026 through 2031 and beyond.
