Omihi Rise Pinot Noir 2007 - Sold out

- 89/100 Steven Tanzer “Good full red. Complex nose melds red fruits, smoked meat, cinnamon, graphite and tarry oak; hints of whole-cluster fermentation. Sweeter and more pliant than the Blacks Lot 7, with intriguing smoke, earth and mineral notes and very good stuffing. The persistent finish boasts very good breadth and sweet tannins.”

- Vino Fino Wine Festival. “Peoples’ Choice, wine of the festival”

Blacks Lot 7 Pinot Noir 2007 - Sold out

- 87/100 Steven Tanzer “Good full red. Musky aromas of smoked meat, minerals and peppery spices. Round but quite dry in the mouth, with almost syrah-like flavors of meat and spices to go with its vague red fruits.”

Canterbury Pinot Noir 2006 - Sold out

- Best Buy (2nd)& 94/100 – Wine Orbit Magazine “ The wine displays wonderful ripe fruit characters of cherries and plums. It’s beautifully fragrant on the nose leading to a juicy palate showing excellent mid-palate weight and dense texture. The fresh acidity provides an excellent balance to the lush fruit while ripe, compact tannins give firm structure to the wine. It was backward when first poured but got better and better with time in the glass. This is sensational Pinot Noir. At this best: now to 2010. Smart Buy
