Spätburgunder
MEDIUM BODIED, RED FRUIT, HERBAL, MINERAL, FRESH, NEUTRAL OAK
Mosel might be a bit cold for a finicky grape like Pinot Noir but this bottling shows the potential. Aromas of tart bing cherry and fresh green herbs on the nose. Cranberry and wild strawberry mingle on the palate with accents of wood spice, smoke, and crunchy minerality.

Pinot Noir
MEDIUM-LIGHT-BODIED, RASPBERRY, STRAWBERRY, FLORAL, SPICE, OAK
A very light and refreshing style of pinot from winemaker Michael Brajkovich, who was New Zealand’s first Master of Wine (MW). Fresh, light, and dry, with a vibrant edge and nice hint of chalky tannins — the palate is lightweight yet fruity with a lick of oak spice and angular acidity.
