Craggy Range 'Te Muna Road Vineyard' Pinot Noir 2023
Grapes for this Craggy Range Pinot Noir come from the Te Muna Road vineyard in the Wairarapa subregion of Martinborough, in the southeastern corner of the North Island. The vineyard consists of two distinct terraces, the upper terrace comprising very old, stony clay-infused soils perfect for growing Pinot Noir. The cooler climate of Martinborough ensures the wine is aromatic with steely minerality while the rocky soils impart intensity of fruit. The region’s warm, dry summers and mild winters lead to complex and structured wines with subtle aromatics and an elegant finish. Aged in French oak barriques for 10 months (21% new) the Craggy Range 'Te Muna Road Vineyard' is a fine, ethereal Pinot Noir with evocative notes of lavender, jasmine, sweet spice underpinned by ripe, red-berried fruits. The silky tannins enhance the flow through to a supremely elegant finish.
