From Dog Point Vineyard in New Zealand’s Marlborough region, the Pinot Noir 2021 is a refined 100% Pinot Noir sourced from six clones on low-yielding, organically farmed vines (planted since 1983) on clay hill slopes in the Southern Valleys subregion, yielding 35 hl/ha and imparting exceptional depth and vibrancy. Hand-harvested grapes from the balanced 2021 vintage—characterized by even ripening yielding concentrated yet elegant fruit—undergo 25% whole-bunch inclusion, fermented in small stainless steel open-top fermenters with indigenous yeasts over three weeks, followed by 18 months' aging in French oak barrels (30% new) to enhance structure and finesse. As New Zealand's largest certified organic vineyard and a family-owned estate since 2002, this production yields a deep ruby wine with garnet edges and remarkable poise.

Tasting Notes An elegant, perfumed red with vibrant red berries and subtle spice, reflecting Marlborough's clay hillside terroir. The nose reveals black cherry, red berry cordial, violets, and hints of nutmeg, star anise, and forest floor. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied and velvety, with fine-grained tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of pomegranate molasses, poached strawberry, and earthy smoke, leading to a long, light-footed finish.

Awards and Accolades The 2021 Pinot Noir earned 92 points from Wine Enthusiast for its layered aromas and plush fruit structure.

Serving and Cellaring Serve at 14-16°C with 30-60 minutes of decanting to unfold aromas. Ideal with roasted duck, venison, lamb, or mushroom dishes. Enjoy now through 2036, during which it will develop enhanced earthy and truffle nuances.
