Yet another mouth-watering Pinot Noir from arguably New Zealand's most renowned producer of the variety, Felton Road. Situated next to Lake Dunstan in Central Otago, the Cornish Point vineyard benefits from a unique mesoclimate that yields luxurious dark fruit flavours and distinctly woody, smoky notes of cedar. Farmed entirely organically and produced in a non-intervention manner, this wine has all the typical Cornish Point spice with perfectly integrated, smooth tannins. A standout. 

96/100 - Floral and fragrant aromas of strawberries, hibiscus, cinnamon bark and plums. The palate is medium-bodied with finely integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of raspberries, chalk, dark cherries and spices. Pure and polished with an aromatic lift and some old-vine nuance. Drink or hold. Screw cap. - James Suckling 

94/100 - There’s a core of sweet fruit here: it’s ripe and generous, with raspberry and sour cherry, and it’s quite compact and unfurled despite the ripeness. Has a bit of grunt with some spicy detail and a touch of tarriness on the finish. This could evolve nicely. Offers a lot of immediate pleasure now though. - Dr. Jamie Goode, WineAnorak 

On the nose, vivacious dark berry flavours and baking spice notes are present as ever with Cornish Point, though perhaps a bit lighter and more exotic in this vintage.

On the palate, a distinct savoury tone which sets well with the luxurious fruit flavours and touches of exotic woods, like Sandalwood or Lebanese Cedar. Tannins are beautifully balanced and integrated; ever present, but never interfering.

Drink now - 2038.

Consider pairing alongside slow-roasted lamb with rosemary and gallic, Beef Wellington, or wild mushroom risotto.
