Dry River,  Pinot Noir - 2008

Winery Story

Dry River Vineyard was established in 1979 for the production of individual, high-quality regional wines that faithfully reflect the "terroi... (more...)r" and the vintage from which they come. The name Dry River was originally held by a historical Martinborough sheep station (circa 1877) near what was initially called the Waihora River. The winery is located in what is now called the "Martinborough Terrace," a gravelly, free-draining area within the lowest rainfall zone in the North Island.

Tasting Note

“…rubellite in hue with clear hints of purple. The nose shows sweet dusty florals associated with old fashioned rose petals hint... (more...)s of red berries and dark cherries. The palate is full and round showing delicacy rather than power with elegant…red fruits dark cherries and crushed walnuts. […]The finish is long with a slight sappiness giving a sense of freshness to the lingering flavours.” -dryriver.co.nz
