Felton Road Block 5 Pinot Noir Central Otago – 2023
CHF 90.00
Block 5 is a small plot of Felton Road’s finest and oldest Pinot Noir vines planted in 1993- their “Grand Cru” if this were Burgundy.
“Floral and perfumed aromas of raspberries, rhubarb, rose petals, lead pencil and dark cherries. The palate has seamless tannins with an underlying power and pure acidity, yielding a tightly wound wine that will unravel in years to come. Made from 30-year-old, biodynamically grown vines. Exceptionally balanced and
poised.” 98pts James Suckling
“A perfectly seamless and finely balanced nose, asserting Block 5’s hallmark elegance and refinement. The palate opens subtly, but expands generously in the manner of the great Pinot Noir
descriptor of peacock’s tail. Encompassing, harmonious with not a single component jostling for recognition – it’s just mature 30-year-old vines doing their business. The precision of fruit and flavour, combined with silk laden tannins, bring it all to an immensely satisfying finish.” Blair Walter, winemaker
