Bright red and dark cherry, strawberry and wild berry with subtle forest-floor and baking spice; toasty oak frames an elegant, mid-weight palate with silky fine tannins and a gentle, lingering fruit finish.

Sourced from Central Otago fruit; traditional Pinot Noir vinification with gentle destemming and oak maturation (retailer notes list mid-weight approach and toasty oak).
