From the multi-award winning Peregrine winery in Central Otago, Saddleback Pinot Noir 2022 is in fine form. Crafted from a mix of Bendigo, Gibbston and Cromwell basin fruit, it is showing bright fresh aromas of red and black berries, florals and a touch of spice. On the palate it moves into dark fruits melding with savoury elements of spice and herb giving lovely balance and persistence.
Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"An appealing Pinot Noir with rich ripe fruit from a lovely warm vintage. Aromas of red cherry and wildberry combine beautifully with enticing red and dark fruit flavours, lovely brown spice and soft supple tannins. A pure expression of Central Otago Pinot Noir. Luscious and fruit focussed with great flavour and concentration.
Central Otago fruit from Peregrine Bendigo Estate, Gibbston and select Cromwell basin sites. Mostly destemmed with a small portion of whole cluster fermentation, and 10 months maturation in older French Oak."
5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, February 2023 (2022 Vintage)
"Wonderfully fruited and fragrant, the wine shows sweet cherry, strawberry, floral, subtle mushroom and hazelnut aromas, leading to a succulent palate offering excellent weight and persistency. Beautifully framed by fleshy texture and polished tannins, finishing long and delectable. At its best: now to 2029."

Peregrine Wines crafts a diverse range of wines including Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Rosé, Riesling, Sparkling, and their pinnacle offerings. The winery’s commitment to excellence is evident through its careful selection of fruit from three distinct Central Otago sub-regions: Bendigo, Pisa, and Gibbston.
Bendigo, with its warm, dry climate and diverse soil types, yields high-quality fruit ideal for robust Pinot Noir with dark fruit notes. Gibbston’s cooler, elevated vineyards produce elegant Pinot Noir with red fruit flavours and a refined profile. Pisa, known for its steady climate, supports the growth of balanced Pinot Noir, Riesling, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc.
Peregrine embraces organic farming principles to ensure the highest fruit quality and environmental sustainability. This approach enhances soil health and vine resilience, contributing to the unique character of each vintage. The McLachlan family's hands-on involvement and dedication reflect in every bottle, embodying their passion for Central Otago. Additionally, Peregrine’s conservation efforts support New Zealand’s native bird species, demonstrating their commitment to environmental stewardship alongside their winemaking excellence.

Thank you Vino Fino Team, Thank you so much for your help with the drinks for our wedding day! We couldn’t have been happier with the service from Vino Fino supplying us with a Chiller Trailer to use on the day! You made getting the wine for our wedding easy and fun. It was low stress, and we truly appreciated being able to bring back the unopened wine. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to our friends and family. We’re so grateful!

All the way in Christchurch, but occasionally order from this store as it has wines I like that I can't source elsewhere, at a great price too. Always great service, and will keep using them.

I had been searching for a very specific wine and I finally found it here. Not only did they have the wine I was searching for, they had a beautiful collection of other wines. If you are a wine lover, be sure to check out Vino Fino. The staff were very knowledgeable on the types of wine and the wine makers. I will be coming back again for sure.

Been a longtime customer here. Great range with reasonable prices. Free delivery over $150 if order online which is even better. Keep an eye on their deal and usually you can find some really great deals

Possibly the best wine shop in New Zealand. I've been coming here for 11+ years. Excellent, interesting wines at a range of price points; friendly, personal and knowledgeable service. If the wall of Sauv Blanc, Pinot Gris, Shiraz and Pinot Noir at the supermarket doesn't do it for you, you need to sign up for Vino Fino's email. They work hard to get sharp prices on very good wines.

An amazing selection of wine from pretty much all over the planet! Price are decent too and for sure if you are good at spotting the right wine can get some amazing wines to a more than fair price! Parking is a bit of an issue but worst come to worst can park at the south city carpark and walk 100m!
