(1 In Stock)
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.
The nose opens with intense tropical fruit that entices and intrigues. Ripe stone fruit of peach
and nectarine dominate the flavours that are fully integrated with the natural sweetness. This
builds through the mid-palate, almost risking being too decadent, until the schist infused
acidity tempers, providing focus and length. The very fine 2024 vintage has provided a detailed
and classic rendition of this special style.
