Wine Description

The Craggy Range Martinborough Pinot Noir 2024 is a refined and delicate expression of one of New Zealand's most iconic wine regions. Hailing from the cool-climate terroir of Martinborough, this Pinot Noir showcases the region’s ability to craft wines that combine finesse and depth. The wine presents a balanced profile that is perfect for both seasoned wine enthusiasts and newcomers to Pinot Noir, with a moderate 12.5% alcohol content that accentuates its elegance.

On the nose, this vintage reveals an aromatic bouquet of dried lavender, wild thyme, and a touch of earthy complexity, intertwining with the bright fragrance of fresh, ripe red cherries. The palate opens with vibrant flavours of crushed raspberries, subtle hints of citrusy orange peel, and a refreshing acidity, making it an excellent companion to a wide range of dishes. Beneath these fruit-forward notes, soft, savoury nuances emerge, creating a wine that is rich in texture and layered with complexity.

Crafted by the renowned Craggy Range Vineyards, this Pinot Noir reflects the winery’s commitment to quality and precision in every bottle. With its silky tannins and persistent finish, it’s a wine that pairs beautifully with lighter meats, roasted vegetables, and an array of soft cheeses, making it an ideal choice for both casual meals and more elegant dining experiences.
