Felton Road Block 3 Pinot Noir 2022

Felton Road is a highly regarded winery located in the Central Otago region of New Zealand. It is known for producing exceptional wines, particularly Pinot Noir, that have gained recognition both domestically and internationally. Since 2002 the vineyards have been managed organically and biodynamically. In 2010 all of their estate vineyards were awarded full Demeter certification and in 2020 they were also certified by BioGro. Their unique gravity flow winery enabled the Pinot Noir grapes for this wine to be gently destemmed directly into open-top fermenters without pumping, with 20% retained as whole clusters. Traditional fermentation with a moderately long maceration on skins has extracted good colour and tannin with considerable depth of flavour.
