“Central Otago Pinot Noir is the newest member of the Grand Reserve family, brought to fruition when an unexpected opportunity arose in the summer of 2019, to source a small block of exceptional quality Pinot Noir from a vineyard in Lowburn. In a moment of madness, we agreed, and so joined a club of winemakers simultaneously tortured and rewarded by the vagaries of this noble, yet neurotic grape!” Chris Scott, Chief Winemaker

TASTING NOTES
AROMAS
Beautifully fragrant, the wine is built around a core of black cherry fruit, overlaid with lifted floral and spice notes, with complexity of savoury herb and mushroom. The oak is subtle, supporting and darkening the wine without dominating the fruit.
BODY
The palate is medium weight with a fine line of acidity and firm youthful tannin driving good textural
length.
CELLARING
We expect this wine to cellar gracefully for 10 years or more.
