Tasting Note
The inaugural release of Swiftsure Bannockburn Pinot Noir comes from the stunning 2022 vintage. The wine 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.
Product Notes
Swiftsure by Man O' War Bannockburn Pinot Noir is an exquisite expression of sophistication from New Zealand's renowned winemaking region. This splendid Pinot Noir allures with an opulent bouquet of dark cherries, wild berries elevated by undertones of rich spices and soft tannins. On the palate, it unfurls a symphony of dark fruitiness, with hints of earthy cocoa and a whisper of oak. A velvety texture and well-balanced acidity enhance the superb flavour, leading to a truly full-bodied and lasting finish. This elegant and complex wine is a first-class choice for every sophisticated wine lover.
