Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir 2023 presents a complex interplay of earthy tones and ripe dark fruits, underpinned by gentle spice and a hint of floral character. Sourced from 20-year-old vines rooted in the famed silt soils of Central Otago, this vintage reflects a precise vineyard expression attributable to meticulous farming practices. The grapes undergo a gravity-flow process, avoiding harsh pumping, with a careful 20% left as whole clusters. Fermentation lasts 22-24 days, followed by 16 months maturation in French oak. Felton Road is renowned for its biodynamic viticulture, reinforcing a commitment to sustainable practices.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Calvert is a herbal, scented expression that gives the sense you've just crushed a bouquet garni. It's full, concentrated and sumptuous with ripe black cherries, raspberries and cream. Like other 2023s, this has a richness of tannin and exceptional acidity, coating the palate satisfyingly and providing texture and assurance on the long, spiced finish.
