Dog Point Pinot Noir 2022

Almost since its inception, Dog Point has been recognized as among the very top, arguably the very top wine producers in New Zealand. Dog Point’s focus on pruning, soil health through organic farming, use of native yeasts and for one wine selected neutral commercial yeasts, all point to a quality and detail-obsessed producer intimately familiar with its region. 

A bright perfumed, supple expression of Marlborough Pinot Noir from clay hill slopes. The fruit is supported by bright florals of rose and violets with crunchy red berry fruit and dried herb notes. The palate is succulent with alluring red cherry, brown spices and silky fine boned tannins. This wine has all the makings of a long lived Marlborough pinot noir and matches perfectly with duck, red meats, particularly venison and lamb, and mushroom dishes.
