Considered by many as new Zealand’s benchmark Pinot Noir, Felton Road are renowned throughout the world for unblemished quality. Their philosophy is driven by sustainability and the wines are produced by way of biodynamic viticultural practices in harmony with their land, the stars and the moon.
The winery is three-tier gravity fed to accommodate a ‘hands off’ approach throughout these crucial stages of production. Minimal human intervention during the winemaking process allows the fruit to better express itself through the unique characteristics of its origins.
Red cherry, plum and a hint of dried herbs open the nose in a delightfully fragrant
manner. The aromatics deftly define the knife edge ripeness that’s critical for great Pinot
Noir; dialled in with ease in the exceptional 2024 vintage. Cardamom, mace and cranberry
make an appearance, followed by a finely poised mouthfeel. The silky tannins are luscious
and sweet, providing backbone and length. A typically expressive Cornish Point.
