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.
