2023 Central Otago Pinot Noir

The Wild Irishman Alexandra is a captivating Pinot Noir from the renowned Central Otago region, celebrated for its breathtaking landscapes and exceptional winegrowing conditions. This 2023 vintage showcases a striking red hue that perfectly reflects its vibrant character. On the palate, expect an elegant balance with a medium body that is both inviting and sophisticated. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's freshness and approachability. The fruit intensity is pronounced, offering delightful notes of ripe cherries, strawberries, and subtle undertones of earthy complexity. Tannins are notably soft, providing a gentle structure that allows the wine to be enjoyed both now and with brief aging. With a dry finish, this wine is undoubtedly a testament to the quality and craftsmanship inherent in Central Otago's winemaking prowess.

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.
