Hawkshead Reserve Pinot Noir 2021 (Magnum 1.5L)
Regular price $169.00 Save $-169.00Tasting Notes
This wine is crafted from slower-ripening Gibbston grapes, known for their restrained savoury flavours, combined with warmer, early-ripening grapes from Lowburn, creating a quintessential Central Otago Pinot Noir. Medium-bodied and soft on the palate, it showcases delicious dark fruits like plums, Black Boy peaches, and ripe cherries, harmonising with lingering dried herbs and a hint of black pepper, along with subtle notes of dark chocolate and mocha.
With excellent concentration, refined acidity, and integrated velvety tannins, this wine offers a long, harmonious finish. This exceptional blend exemplifies classic Central Otago Premium Pinot Noir and will cellar beautifully.
Minimal intervention.
