Restrained, elegant and showing notes of ripe dark fruits, smooth oak and a touch of dried herbs. Lovely depth and richness on the palate, with juiciness and a dense crunch. A gusty Pinot with racy freshness and delicious texture. Drinking Window: 2023 - 2028"
Rockburn was established in the then little-known region of Central Otago in 1991. In 2005, winemaker Malcolm Francis arrived from Felton Road where his skills immediately reaped the rewards when he won the Elite Gold Medal. The estate Pinot Noir is fast gaining a reputation as one of the finest produced in Central Otago.
