Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir 2016 showcases the complexities of Central Otago`s terroir. It features dark fruit aromas layered with subtle spice and a touch of earthiness. The vines, which are over 20 years old, are rooted in silt soils, contributing to the wine’s distinct character. The production process includes a careful gravity flow system where grapes are destemmed into open fermenters, fermenting with indigenous yeasts. The wine matures for 16 months in French oak, with 25% new wood, and is bottled without fining or filtration. Felton Road is renowned for its organic and biodynamic farming practices.
