Te Kairanga Estate Pinot Noir 2020

Te Kairanga Pinot Noir 2020 has a classic crimson colour with ripe berry, plum and cassis aromas. Delightfully fragrant with vibrant bramble, wild berry spice and hints of earthiness fill the nose. The palate is plush with rich fruit, fine flow and gentle tannins. For chief winemaker John Kavanagh there is nothing more important than endeavoring to produce wines that display the characteristics of their vineyard source. To this end, the over 60 distinct Pinot Noir lots are individually harvested, vinified, and matured in barrels separately until final blending. In the winery the wines are individually punched down and gently pressed to ensure full extraction without sacrificing elegance. A balanced oak treatment is combined with minimal fining and filtering to help preserve both varietal purity and the distinct terroir characteristics.
