3rd Rock

Central Otago Pinot Noir

Rock Ferry's 3rd Rock Pinot Noir from Central Otago embodies a harmonious blend of elegance and intensity. This red wine showcases a medium body with a silky texture that gently caresses the palate. The fruit intensity in this Pinot Noir is moderate, offering a delightful array of red fruit flavors that dance gracefully on the taste buds. The acidity is balanced, adding a refreshing and lively character to the wine. Tannins are notable yet soft, providing structure without overwhelming, and the dryness is well-suited to enhance the overall drinking experience.

New Zealand

New Zealand is one of the most isolated countries on Earth, and the small country surprised everyone when its crisp, focused wines began impressing critics in the 1990s. New Zealand first made its impact on the wine world with Sauvignon Blanc from the picturesque Marlborough region. Zingy, floral and herbaceous, these mouthwatering Sauvignon Blancs thrilled wine lovers. Pinot Noir is another success story here, becoming blissfully elegant with beautiful cherry aromas in regions like Central Otago and Wairarapa. While Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir star in New Zealand, stunning whites like Riesling, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, and complex reds such as Syrah and Merlot, also find a welcome home in this beautiful and rugged land.
