Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir

Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Martinborough

Small iconic GI of Wairarapa (southern tip of North Island, New Zealand): signature Pinot Noir as king red — structured and savory with notes of black plum, cherry, blackberry, mushroom, dried thyme, leather and a floral touch, fine tannins and signature mineral tension, "masculine" complex style contrasting with Central Otago. Lively Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay as complement. GI, well-drained gravel terraces and clay-limestone, windy semi-maritime.


The wine region of North Island

New Zealand's North Island, warmer and more varied than the South Island. Bordeaux varieties and Pinot Noir as signatures. Merlot in Hawke's Bay as a supple red with notes of plum, ripe cherry, fresh herbs and a spicy touch, round tannins — blended with Cabernet and peppery Syrah. Fine Pinot Noir in Wairarapa/Martinborough (cherry, undergrowth).
