Gold Medal – Marlborough Wine Show 2025
Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"This Pinot Noir is an excellent example of a fruit-forward Marlborough wine. It displays vibrant red fruit characters, including ripe plum and wild berry. The palate offers a rich texture, with fruity notes flowing seamlessly into a supple finish. Soft tannins complement earthy undertones and subtle spice, which linger pleasantly. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 5+ years.
The fruit was handpicked and partially destemmed before being fermented in an open top fermenter. 40% whole clusters were used in the ferment to retain the richness of the fruit. The wine was pressed off and aged in French oak barrels for 15 months. No fining was done on this wine. Sulphur was added to the wine just before bottling."
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, June 2026 (2024 Vintage)
"A delicious wine driven by a core of ripe dark red berry fruit flavours, Doris plum skin and a fine savoury quality. There’s also a foundation of mineral earth accentuated by lees, acidity and an abundance of fine tannins. Excellent mouthfeel, ripeness and pinosity, a persistent flavours profile of dark cherry and plum, there’s a lees and nut oak seam adding complexity and depth, all leading to a dry and textured finish. Well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2033."
