Pinot noir from the Lowburn subregion in Central Otago. 25% whole bunches in the mix in the '23 release and there's a lovely exotic lift and textural component on display in the wine as a result. Dark cherry and berry fruits with hints of crushed stone, mountain herbs, medina spice, raspberry pip, wildflowers and earth. There's a long, pure stretch of fruit on the palate, fine, powdered-schist tannins and a fine mineral cadence as the wine travels. Winemaker Huw Kinch says, 'the idea with the whole bunch was to tame the sunlight in the wine a little' ... nailed it. The balance is just right. (96) DAVE BROOKS
