Bright ruby in appearance, this Marlborough Pinot Noir opens with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and soft plum, layered with subtle spice and dried herb notes. The palate is smooth and fruit-driven, showing pure red berry flavours with a supple, finely textured mid-palate. Balanced acidity brings freshness and definition, while soft, integrated tannins provide gentle structure. A touch of oak adds subtle spice and roundness, leading to a soft, even finish with lingering fruit clarity.

Steeped in history, Coopers Creek have been crafted from New Zealand’s best grape growing regions for over 40 years. With a legacy of making great wines we are proudly family owned and sustainably produced – protecting our lands for future generations.

Fruit was sourced primarily from the Calrossie vineyard in Marlborough, where a balanced growing season supported even ripening and the development of bright aromatics and naturally soft tannins. Harvest took place under stable conditions to capture optimal flavour and balance. Fermentation was carried out in stainless steel to retain varietal purity and freshness, with gentle extraction techniques used to preserve finesse and avoid over-structuring the wine. A portion of oak was integrated during maturation to build subtle texture and introduce light spice complexity, while maintaining a clean, fruit-forward style.
