TASTING NOTES
REGION NOTES
A regional blend of fruit grown at our Queensberry Vineyard alongside fruit produced by our growers throughout the Queensberry, Bendigo, Pisa, Bannockburn and Gibbston sub regions of Central Otago.
NANNY GOAT VINEYARD
At latitude 45o South, New Zealand's Central Otago is the most southerly wine region in the world. With vineyards at 200 - 400m above sea level, vines cling precariously to the steep slopes and edges of deep river gorges. This is a region of climatic extremes with typically very hot summers, short autumns and bitterly cold winter days. The soils are rocky with easy drainage and poor fertility.
All these conditions are perfect for producing world-class Pinot Noir. The unique terrior of Central Otago produces wines of extraordinary intensity and distinction that show varietal and regional definition.
EXPERT REVIEWS
Bob Campbell MW
92 POINTSOUT OF 100.
Intense, concentrated wine with black cherry/berry, raspberry, vanilla, chocolate flavours supported by fine, drying tannins and fruity acidity. Should age well. Give your glass a good swirl to aerate the wine.

92 POINTSOUT OF 100.
A complete wine with a bouquet of fresh red cherry and quince, along with some button mushrooms and red apple. There's a youthful, taut palate squeeze with a backbone of acidity and a bright core of red berry fruits: plum, cherry, raspberry, and quince. It's still knitting together, with best drinking from late 2025 through 2029 and beyond.

92 POINTSOUT OF 100.
The density of fruit and chewy tannins impresses. It's rather muscular and cool in structure, with a steely stone character. Some flint, too. Medium-bodied. Chewy at the end. Give this two or three years to soften, but it's excellent for the vintage. Screw cap.
