The Pinot Noir is grown organically in Central Otago under New Zealand certification, and the bottle carries thirteen and one-half percent alcohol. The overall texture is soft and supple.
Two Paddocks 2014 The Fusilier Bannockburn Vineyard Pinot Noir
Light red fruit, gentle spice, smoky oak and a steely note appear with ripe dark cherry, plum pit, savoury detail, wild herbs and a mineral undertone. Medium youthful tannins, ripe acidity and a noticeable touch of new oak accompany a long finish. Pinot Noir fruit comes from a single vineyard in Bannockburn, within New Zealand’s Central Otago region.
Rippon 2016 Mature Vine Pinot Noir
Pale yet saturated in colour, with a fine perfume of game, dry berries and cherry. Savoury, dry tannins accompany mouthwatering, meaty and herbal character. Raspberry, Asian five-spice, delicate herbs, crushed stone and firm, ripe tannins also appear. Medium- to full-bodied, the wine has a long finish and a slightly chewy texture. The Pinot Noir comes from biodynamically farmed vines in Central Otago, New Zealand.
Rippon 2019 Mature Vine Riesling
Green apple, sliced pear and bright citrus lead with a delicate floral lift and cool wet-stone minerality. The palate is medium-bodied and nearly dry, driven by mouthwatering acidity through juicy orchard fruit and lemon peel. Clean, precise and persistent, the finish remains fresh and mineral. Pair with grilled fish, shellfish or lightly spiced vegetables.
