Ata Rangi Crimson Pinot Noir

Description

20 years ago we named this special Pinot Noir “Crimson” in support of Project Crimson, the charitable trust working to replace and preserve native red-flowering pōhutukawa and rātā trees throughout New Zealand.

An expressive nose of red fruits, with hints of pink peppercorn, hibiscus, fresh sage and rosemary.The palate opens to plush fruit, with a dash of graphite and crushed rock. The tannins are finely textured, like crisp cut velvet.This wine has a salivating, exciting quality that sets it apart from Crimson of other years.An all-encompassing wine that drinks beautifully now, its persistence and energy will reward those who cellar.
