Pinot Noir - Waipara West is a classic expression of the Waipara Valley in North Canterbury, New Zealand. This boutique winery focuses on producing wines with personality, and the 2018 vintage showcases the region's ability to create Pinot Noir with both power and finesse.

• Tasting Profile: Bright ruby red in the glass. The nose is inviting with aromas of dark cherry, red plum, and wild berries, interwoven with hints of dried herbs, savory spice, and subtle forest floor notes.
• Palate: Medium-bodied and elegant, featuring fine-grained tannins and a bright acidity. Layers of red fruit are balanced by a touch of savory complexity and soft oak influence, leading to a smooth and persistent finish.
• Food Pairing: An excellent match for roasted lamb, duck confit, wild mushroom risotto, seared salmon, or soft-ripened cheeses.
