Black Cottage Central Otago Pinot Noir 2019

$22.99

Lifted berry fruits and plum aromas with hints of wild thyme and smoke. The palate is full of vibrant boysenberry and dark fruit flavours that fade to smoky notes. Soft acidity and plush tannins contribute to a glossy mouth feel and a smooth, slightly peppery finish.

Notes

The continental Central Otago climate is one of extremes – the fiercely cold nights and long, warm summer days allow the black queen to display pure, vibrant fruit. From a vineyard in Cromwell, the fruit was handpicked from traditional Pinot Noir clones 6 and 10/5. The wine was hand plunged and 10% whole bunches added back to the ferment. The wine was then matured with French oak for 4 months.
