Black Estate winemaker Nicholas Brown has been awarded 2022 NZ Winemaker of the Year by Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine

The Netherwood vineyard is situated on Reeces Road in Omihi and was planted by Russell Black and Danny Schuster in 1986. The vines are very close planted, on their own root stock and un-irrigated. Yields can be minuscule. This is the most ‘pinotesque’ of Black Estate's three vineyard Pinot Noirs with that alluring and evocative contrast of power and elegance and daresay, Burgundian character. A special wine of delicate power.

Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Deep ruby hue. Fragrant aromas of black raspberry, mulberry, dark plum, sandalwood, vanilla and sea spray. Supple and elastic mid pallet tannins that are contained with bright, crisp, and pure minerality. Typical white rock tension creates a long and vibrant finish.

This is an unfined and unfiltered wine with small amounts of sediment. Please allow the bottle to stand and settle before pouring. Decanting will allow maximum expression of aroma and purity of fruit to emerge. Drink now to 2036. No additives except minimal sulphur at bottling. Certified organic and biodynamic."

Rated Outstanding & 95/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"A complex bouquet with layers of spice and dried herb, black and berry fruits, earth-smoke of chalk and clay with a vibrant youthful energy. Delicious on the palate and equally complex with a fleshy fruit core framed by fine tannins and pristine acidity, a wine of texture and balance, poise and length. Best drinking from 2027 through 2038+."
