Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir 2016 showcases the complexities of Central Otago`s terroir. It features dark fruit aromas layered with subtle spice and a touch of earthiness. The vines, which are over 20 years old, are rooted in silt soils, contributing to the wine’s distinct character. The production process includes a careful gravity flow system where grapes are destemmed into open fermenters, fermenting with indigenous yeasts. The wine matures for 16 months in French oak, with 25% new wood, and is bottled without fining or filtration. Felton Road is renowned for its organic and biodynamic farming practices.

The 2016 Calvert Pinot Noir has a little more definition on the nose than the 2016, featuring a mixture of red and black fruit tinged with black truffle and smoke. The palate is medium-bodied with red berry fruit, tomato vine, a touch of white pepper and an elegant finish that perhaps just misses the harmony and persistence of the previous vintage. Nevertheless, this is still very pretty and succinct Pinot Noir that should age well in bottle if so desired.    Neal Martin1st November 2018
