94/100 | Decanter Magazine
Excellent blanc de noir ( vinted from 100% Pinot Noir but the wine is fermented with very little skin contact - hence the palest salmon colour). It has a rich fruit entry with concentrated flavours of peach and pear leading to a dry finish. This wine is excellent. An instant staff favourite.

Decanter Magazine writes "Pale, luminous and lithe, this Central Otago Blanc de Noir is made from 100% pinot noir. With very short skin-contact time, this increasingly popular style is a knife edge between white wine and rosé but its pretty aromatics and minerally bright palate are too good to miss. With stonefruit, nashi pear, citrus and spice notes, there's good fruit intensity and a crisp, dry finish. A silky, refreshing aperitif-style perfect for a warm summer's day."
The winery writes "This fresh, mineral wine is made entirely from Pinot Noir and is BioGro certified organic. Hand picked fruit and minimal skin contact ensures a brilliantly pale and clear wine with intense aromas of nectarine, pears and spice. The palate shows fresh stonefruit and defined minerality."
