Burn Cottage Vineyard Moonlight Race Central Otago Pinot Noir 2018
- Nutty oak
- Ripe cherry & plum
- Roasted chestnut
- Spice notes
"A blend of fruit from the Home vineyard in Lowburn and the Sauvage vineyard in Bannockburn. Seductive and accessible Pinot Noir with ripe cherry, fresh herb, plum, spice, thyme, roasted chestnut and nutty oak flavours" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Apr 2020
Wonderful savoury and herb tones are supported by spice, red fruit, pepper and mineral complexity. Supple and elegant, the wine is focused with a lovely freshness and fine smooth tannin extending the palate. Cellaring potential to 7 years.
A very warm vintage with above average temperatures in December and January. Mid-season conditions were very calm with low wind-run and no significant rainfall, so the season was tracking well ahead of usual timing. Some rain, and then overall milder conditions in February and March meant ripening slowed favourably towards harvest. The 2018 harvest was the earliest to date commencing 13th March, however those late season conditions had helped to give lovely ripeness whilst retaining balance and finesse.
