Though a relatively young bottling, it already shows the kind of concentration and character that make this a standout New Zealand Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this is a notably dark-hued Pinot Noir, hinting at its concentrated style. The nose opens with dark cherries and plums, layered with orange peel, roses, and a subtle touch of wood.\n\nOn the palate, it comes in with real drive and power, led by dark fruit, black tea, and gentle spice. Despite its intensity, the wine remains fresh and poised rather than heavy. It has the structure and depth to age gracefully over the next few years, gaining further complexity as it develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fruit comes from Settlement Vineyard in Omaka Valley, Marlborough, where the vines are farmed according to organic principles. The small berries and clusters create a wine with exceptional density and concentration, reflecting both the site and the growing conditions. Harvest is carried out by hand, and 65% of the bunches are fermented whole-cluster before maturation in traditional French oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Pinot Noir works beautifully with roast duck, mushroom dishes, game birds, lamb, or earthy vegetarian plates such as beetroot and lentil tart.
