About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Pinot NoirCentral Otago, New ZealandWinemakers comments:
River Run is our Central Otago regional Pinot Noir made from grapes grown in our vineyards in different sub-regions of Central Otago. The deep alpine valleys and waterways of Central Otago have carved the land available for grape growing into quite distinct sub-regions. Each pocket of land has its own unique climate and soil mix producing quite different styles of Pinot Noir. River Run captures the character of each of the sub-regions where our vineyards are planted. Lowburn gives us bright, fresh sweet fruit, Gibbston savoury and herbal tones and Parkburn brings good texture and mineral length.
Wine description:
Aromas of dark spices and dried herb are underpinned with a bright red cherry fruit perfume. Abundant fresh red fruit flavours move to dried herb and savoury notes supporting a long sustained finished. The ample and supple mouthfeel is unencumbered by oak allowing the fruit to be the focus.
