Tasting Notes:
Established across gentle north-facing
slopes on a natural river terrace,
our Bannockburn vineyard is planted
exclusively in Pinot Noir.
The inaugural release of Swiftsure
Bannockburn Pinot Noir has a powerful
aromatic; both fruitful and savoury with
boysenberry, rhubarb and cherry blossom
interwoven with tendrils of smoke and a
faint scent of nori. The palate shows good
density with a succession of berry fruit
characters and a touch more of the umami
feel. The tannins are wrapped in the
warmth of vintage
days with a vibrancy that evokes the cool
jewelled Central Otago night sky.
This beautifully crafted Pinot Noir is a
fine expression of the Bannockburn
sub- region; intense but perfumed, poised
yet slightly wild. Structured with
finesse, designed for long-term aging and
an equal measure of youthful exuberance
that will reward early drinking.
