Central Otago
New Zealand
Central Otago, in the heart of New Zealand's South Island, competes for the title of southernmost wine region in the world. Between snowy mountains, sparkling rivers and sheltered valleys, its spectacular vineyards cling to the slopes as if suspended in a natural amphitheatre.
Here Pinot Noir reigns supreme, covering nearly three quarters of the vineyard. It shows a sunny, precise style, with intense aromas of dark plum, sweet spice and bramble, and a depth of colour and structure that bring it close to the great terroirs of Burgundy. Chardonnay, Riesling and Pinot Gris complete the picture, bringing freshness and elegance to this extraordinary region.
Recommended for you:
A crisp and silky red focused on ripe cherry and sweet spices. Highly enjoyable right now, though some cellar time will do it good.
