Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir Central Otago – 2020
CHF 65.00CHF 49.50
Felton Road is one of the world’s most southerly producers, located in the Central Otago region of New Zealand’s south island. The winery was founded in 1991 and has been certified biodynamic since 2002. Calvert is a single vineyard of “1er Cru” quality if this were Burgundy.
This 2020 vintage Pinot is immediately bursting with characteristic Calvert florals that are supported by dark cherry, plum and allspice. Violets flow endlessly on a silk laden mid-palate that intensifies and firms in the normal Calvert manner. Refinement; precision; florality; deeply reflective: descriptors that commonly define this great site are respectfully amplified in this cooler and slower ripening vintage.
“Beautifully concentrated nose with ripe strawberries and raspberries, black cherry, hints of star anise and delicate oak spice. Fantastic purity of fruit.” 96pts; Decanter UK – wine of the year 2021.
