Rock Ferry Pinot Noir
This Pinot Noir comes from Bendigo, one of the warmest sub regions in Central Otago. The vineyard is also one of the highest – at 400m above sea level. Rock Ferry are aiming for layers of texture, fine ripe velvet tannins and restrained power. Every year they are learning more about the personality traits of this vineyard – the view is spectacular, and we like what we see coming from this special place!
This is quite a powerful Pinot, it has aromas of crushed violets and baked plums with an earthy edge. The fleshy palate has a subtle linear acidity and ripe pepperiness. Layers of complexity evolve in the mouth and the wine tails off nicely, with a lovely long finish.
