Description
Description
The Tiger Pinot Noir hails from a single vineyard nestled within the Lowburn sub-region of Central Otago. The vineyard gently ascends from the valley floor, benefiting from its elevated position and facilitating a gradual ripening process that develops intricate layers of flavour nuances and soft, velvety tannins in the wine.Wines sourced from this vineyard typically exhibit aromatic notes of spice, red berries, and violets. The palate is structured with multiple layers of finely integrated, textural tannins.
Winemakers Comments:
An enticing bouquet that slowly opens to reveal ripe red fruits of cherry and plum with subtle hints of raspberry and smoked dried herbs. Velvety texture and elegance hit the mid-palate to reveal layers upon layers of flavour. The finish lingers gracefully with a calm persistence and a luminous acidity that delivers pleasing freshness and length.
