Three wines, three distinct expressions from Central Otago and North Canterbury representing the Pyramid Valley view of these two great South Island appellations. A delicious pinot trifecta!
2020 North Canterbury Pinot Noir
Deep brooding nose of plum and blue fruits with lifted floral spicy notes. Full bodied Pinot Noir with ripe rich fruits, mouth filling texture and round plush tannins giving the wine weight and power that lingers on the palate with a savoury, moreish finish.
2020 Korimako Pinot Noir
Brooding complex aromas of lifted florals, red berries and a gamey, earthy complexity. Vibrant palette of fresh berries with an earthy, mouth-filling structure that coats the mouth. Sinewy tannins drive the wine with a long saline minerally finish.
2023 Pyramid Valley Mānatu Pinot Noir
Bright garnet appearance. Aromas of wild berries and summer fruits, with savoury spices. The wine has a silky texture that this vineyard always delivers, followed by a chalky fine tannin structure that balances the juicy Central Otago fruit. The flavours are persistent, with an understated power. A beautiful freshness and lightness like the alpine air that surrounds this place.
