Felton Road Cornish Pinot Noir 2020
Felton Road Wines Ltd, in Bannockburn, Central Otago, New Zealand, has planted some of the world's southernmost vineyards. The expression, growing on the edge, has real meaning in Central Otago, with the lowest rainfall and lowest temperatures of any agricultural region in New Zealand.
Felton Road ardently adheres to the philosophy that wine quality is determined in the vineyard. Every possible step is taken to ensure that grapes of outstanding quality are delivered to the winery.
Moderately intense pinot noir with dark-fleshed plum, dark berry, cassis, chocolate-mocha, spice, anise and subtle floral notes supported by suede-like tannins. A complex wine that can be appreciated now but will clearly benefit from bottle age. - Bob Campbell, The Real Review, 19 August, 2021, 96 Points
