Tasting Notes


The 2022 Dry River Pinot Noir from Martinborough is a true expression of New Zealand's renowned winemaking prowess. This vintage showcases a deep ruby hue, with slight violet undertones, hinting at its youth and vibrancy. On the nose, aromas of ripe cherries, dark plums, and freshly picked raspberries dance alongside delicate notes of cedar and earthy spices. On the palate, the wine unfolds with a beautiful balance of fruit and acidity, with flavours of black currant, red cherries, and a touch of vanilla. The tannins are well-integrated, adding a pleasing texture to the wine's smooth and velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a delightful aftertaste of dark berries and a touch of smokiness. This Dry River Pinot Noir is a true testament to the quality and complexity that can be achieved in the 2022 vintage. Perfectly paired with roasted lamb or a mushroom risotto, this wine is a must-try for any wine lover.
