2019 Kolo Pinot Noir
Savoury | Dark Fruit | Structured
The world’s most majestic eagle once hunted the skies over Bannockburn and our Felton Terrace Vineyard. Local legend tells of a young warrior named Kolo who protected his family from a Pouakai—Haast Eagle. The tale speaks of courage and freedom-two traits that capture the spirit of our region and this Pinot Noir. From old vines planted in ancient schist soils battling extreme desert alpine conditions, Kolo is a single site wine of great energy, tension and complexity.
Hand-picked, cold soaked for 3 days then warmed naturally for fermentation. 20 days on skins, pressed into French oak barrels (30% new). Aged in barrels for 22 months before blending and bottling.
Deep, dark, brooding fruit with prominent notes of Black Doris plum and wild bramble berries. Silky, well-integrated tannins with remarkable depth of flavour.
