Winery notes (2020 Vintage)
"After the generous 2019 offering we are again blessed with a truly excellent and very classic Pinot Noir vintage, arguably the best since 2010 in terms of finesse, elegance and varietal purity. The colour is bright with a dark red hue. There is clarity and precision on the nose with ripe yet cool dark fruit aromas, complex and transparent at the same time. Like a racehorse, this wine is all muscle but no fat, subtle power with an elusive lightness, flowing seamlessly through the palate and finishing with real tension, firm structure and a fine tannin coating in the long finish.
Grapes sourced from our own Fromm Vineyard, from Churton Vineyard in the Waihopai Valley and from three sites in the Brancott Valley (Quarter, Yarrum and Wrekin). No herbicides, pesticides or systemic fungicides used. Only approved natural fertiliser applied. All vineyards certified organic (BioGro). Hand-picked between March 13th and April 1st. Almost 100% destemmed with a negligible amount of whole bunches while retaining a high portion of whole berries, all fermented on “wild” yeast. Average time on skins between 14 and 28 days. Matured for approximately 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels (less than 10% new)."
5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2023 (2020 Vintage)
"Charming and delightfully composed, the wine shows dark cherry, warm spice, game and rich floral aromas on the nose. The palate delivers excellent weight and plump mouthfeel, beautifully supported by fine texture and polished tannins. Harmonious and structured with a sustained silky finish. Certified organic. At its best: now to 2030."
93/100 James Suckling, September 2022 (2020 Vintage)
"This has a pretty nose of dried violets, wild raspberries, blackberries, licorice, cloves and crushed stones. All in balance here, with supple wild berry fruit well-integrated with dried spice, wrapped up in firm and silky tannins. Long and flavourful. From organically grown grapes."

Rated Outstanding & 95/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2021 (2019 Vintage)
"I’ve been enjoying this wine over three days to discover that day three delivers the best expression for this wine and vintage. Aromas and flavours of a deeply complex and fine savoury bouquet. Layers of red berries and wood spice, smoky oak and red berry scents of Doris plum and dark cherry, some wild forest berries and kitchen spice suggestions. Equally complex on the palate, dry with a core of fruit, contrasting tannins and acidity layered between savoury, mineral and spice. Delicious, youthful and lengthy. Best drinking from late 2022 through 2030."
93/100 Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review, October 2021 (2019 Vintage)
"A blend of grapes from five vineyards mainly in the Southern Valleys. Bright, vibrant pinot noir with dark cherry, floral, violet, fireworks and spicy oak flavours. Appealing purity and with subtle power. A serious wine at an attractive price."
