Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"The Crater Rim Limited Edition Gibbston Valley Pinot Noir was sourced from a single Gibbston Valley vineyard. The fruit was fermented in small open top vats by native yeasts followed by maturation on lees in French oak barriques for 15 months. The wine is sweetly expressed on the nose showing red/black cherry, floral, earthy mushroom, vanilla and mixed spice characters. The palate is equally attractive, displaying lovely weight and silky texture, brilliantly framed by polished tannins. The wine offers both sweet fruit richness and savoury complexity, making it engaging and satisfying."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, August 2023 (2022 Vintage)
"It's beautifully scented on the nose, showing dark cherry, rich floral, olive and warm spice aromas, followed by a silky-smooth palate that's succulent and fleshy. Splendidly fruited and elegantly complex with refined texture and beautifully pitched tannins, finishing persistent and velvety. At its best: now to 2029."

The Crater Rim takes its name from the twin craters of the ancient Akaroa and Lyttelton volcanos. Eruptions from these majestic landforms in ages past gifted the surrounding land with an enduring fertility.

The Crater Rim's first yineyard was planted above Akaroa township and the significance of this location in terms of its climatic effect on the whole region of Canterbury meant this brand would extend to include plantings in additional sub-regionsof Waipara, Omihi and Banks Peninsula and Central Otago.

Waipara, in North Canterbury's hills, is now the home base for The Crater Rim where specific sub-regional terriors contribute to the wines produced on their vineyards. Exceptional Pinot Noir is produced at The Crater Rim's winery site, Omihi Rise, also in North Canterbury. The Frahar Vineyard in Waipara also supplies Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc grapes.

The Crater Rim is a frequent recipient of awards, including multiple medals in the New World Wine Awards and regular reviews by Sam Kim of Wine Orbit.
