OPIHI RED WINE

Pinot Noir

A cool-climate red wine aged in French oak, with fruit definition true to the variety.

Pinot Noir 2009

Soft ripe fruit surrounds a definite spine of acid and fine tannins. Skilful wood ageing has produced a wine of balance and complexity. Approachable now, the wine will reward further cellaring.

Canterbury Pinot Noir 2008

An elegant, medium bodied wine displaying notes of dark cherry, spicy oak and hints of pepper. Fruit sweetness is balanced by well integrated tannins and creamy malolactic characters. This wine is well structured and offers good mouth feel and length.

Alcohol:13.5%
