James Suckling
Light-ruby color. Aromas of roses, green-topped strawberries, sandalwood and basil, following through to a medium to light body with fine, crunchy tannins and a savory finish. Some flint. Due to one of the coolest, wettest vintages in memory, Ata Rangi made only one pinot that year, blending even the best and oldest parcels into the Crimson.
Rebecca Gibb MW - Vinous
The 2023 Pinot Noir Crimson is the only red from Ata Rangi in this vintage. It has a pale hue, gentle texture and well-handled grippy tannins that reflect a delicate extraction. Herbal lift adds interest to a savory palate with subtle red berry fruit. This has modest concentration and limited length, but it's approachable from the off.
