Mt Difficulty single vineyard wines are a celebration of time and place. Pipeclay Terrace, planted in 1996 is an elevated terrace in the edge of the historic Bannockburn Sluicings rising from 250m to 265m with the inaugral release of this wine in 2002. Pipeclay Terrace’s unique personality has resulted in a Pinot Noir that is perfumed yet brooding with dark cherry aromas and uplifted floral violet notes. A rich mid-palate follows with flowing sinuous tannins on the finish that will reward cellaring for a further 7 to 15 years 14% Vol 750ml. Product of New Zealand 2017 vinage

Common questions

Is Pinot Noir light or full bodied?

Usually light to medium bodied, with soft tannins. Wines from warmer regions such as California or Central Otago can be riper and fuller than Burgundy.

What does Blanc de Noirs mean?

It is a white sparkling wine, usually Champagne, made only from black grapes such as Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The juice is pressed off the skins quickly so it stays pale.
