Calvert Vineyard

2008 Central Otago Pinot Noir

The Pyramid Valley Vineyards Calvert Vineyard Pinot Noir from the 2008 vintage is a stunning expression of Central Otago's unique terroir. This wine showcases a medium body that seamlessly integrates with its pronounced acidity, creating a delightful balance in each sip. Its fruit intensity is remarkably prominent, offering vibrant notes of cherry and raspberry that dance alongside earthy undertones. The tannins are notably structured, lending a firm backbone that enhances the wine's complexity. With a dryness that feels refreshing, this Pinot Noir is both captivating and approachable, making it an excellent choice for food pairings or enjoying on its own. The elegance and sophistication of this wine truly reflect the high quality that Central Otago is known for.

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.
