Grand Reserve
Hawke's Bay Pinot Noir
Plateau Pinot Noir 2022
Cherry, berry and spice lifted by sweet florals. The palate is rich yet vibrant, silky in texture and drawn out to a long, moorish finish. A Pinot Noir that speaks with quiet confidence.

The Specs
served straight
Not another marketing blurb.
Just the practical stuff, how it’s made, what it pairs with.
Food Pairing
From duck confit and mushroom risotto to chargrilled salmon or roasted game. Whether classic French, modern Asian or casual bistro, it finds its place.
Winemaking
Sourced from the higher Plateau Vineyard in Hawkes Bay, where cooler conditions sharpen Pinot’s character. Destemmed into open and closed tanks, hand-plunged and gently worked for balance. A mix of wild and cultured yeasts, natural malolactic in barrel and nine months in French oak, 15% new and 22% second fill, adds depth and serious character.
