Rippon 'Rippon' Mature Vine Pinot Noir 2017
Rippon
A unique and distinct parcel of land, cared for by the Mills family for over 100 years. Biodynamic farming, no irrigation and some of Central Otago's oldest vines on their own roots all help to produce fruit and wines that are true to their place.
Six varieties have chosen Rippon as their home - Pinot Noir, Riesling, Gamay, Gewurztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Osteiner. Reflecting characteristics of the terroir, these wines are precise, detailed, layered and foliated.
Rippon's Cellar Door is open for wine tastings and sales from 11am-5pm, daily. Private tastings are available and are required for groups larger than 6.

James Suckling
This is such profoundly complex pinot with violets, dark cherries, plums, blueberries, graphite, black tea, peppery nuances, licorice and woody spices, all taking a role on the nose. The palate has such density and precision, delivering a powerfully composed and profoundly concentrated core of blueberry and dark-cherry flavor in a layered and refined style. Such impressive depth and character. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
