| Produced By
Anchorage Wines New Zealand Limited |
| Wine Description |
A lighter, fruity style pinot noir with a deep luscious cherry colour, fine-grained velvety tannins and a long, spicy, forest floor finish. The nose is strawberries, boysenberries and blackberries with a hint of violets while the palate includes mouthfilling berry flavours with hints of hints of savouriness, pepper, spice and truffles. Subtle oak tantilises the nose and palate.

| Winemakers Notes |
|
Nelson fruit was harvested at its analytical best then processed locally in Nelson. Fruit was put through a cold soaking before being fermented in a traditional manner, using open red fermenters. A variety of hand-plunging techniques was implemented during fermentation and a light post-soak was also carried out to integrate delicate tannins. The wine was then aged in a mixture of French and American oak barriques of varying years. |
