Block 5 Pinot Noir 2013 is a single-vineyard bottling from Felton Road in Central Otago, sourced from a site with deep, clay-rich soils that produce the estate`s most muscular wines. This 2013 vintage is youthfully mute on the nose, slowly revealing notes of pomegranate, cherry and Chinese five spice, underpinned by a distinct earthy character. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and savoury, with densely packed layers of fruit and firm, grainy tannins that suggest significant ageing potential. Winemaking follows biodynamic principles with minimal intervention, capturing the natural intensity and structural depth that define the Block 5 terroir in cooler growing seasons.

Bright medium red. Captivating musky aromas of almost confectionery red fruits, spices and flowers. Savory and classically dry, showing dominant flavors of strawberry and raspberry. Can't quite match the 2014 Block 5 for refinement of tannins or lift but this will be a beauty if it's able to retain its fruit as the tannins soften.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2016

Cool start to the season and then a warm harvest. Very obvious tannins initially.Deep and rich with some liqueur elements. Long and luscious. Quite textured and deep flavoured. Quite a bit of grunt. Long and vibrant. Not too dissimilar to the 2012 Cornish Point. (JR)
