HawksheadCentral Otago Pinot Noir
About this product
Hawkshead was the first home in New Zealand of Denis Marshall’s ancestor, naturalist William Swainson, Fellow of the Royal Society, who arrived to make his home here in 1841. Denis Marshall & Ulrike Kurenbach dedicate their wines to all those who have made this beautiful country their home. Grapes are hand-picked, de-stemmed and matured in French oak barrels. Minimal intervention in the winery and sustainable wine growing are our principles.

Gorgeously complex and enticing, the bouquet shows sweet berry, dried herb, game and toasted nut aromas, followed by a silky-smooth palate delivering fine texture and polished tannins. Beautifully rounded and flowing with a lengthy sensual finish. At its best: now to 2032. June 2023.
