Caroline's Pinot Noir 2018

Caroline’s reflects the season through all five Pinot Noir clones grown within our Clos.

Red cherry and plum, with dried herbs, mushroom and game. Fine, chalky tannins and lively acidity frame the wine’s developed savoury character.

Vintage & Wine Details

VINTAGE

The 2018 season was among the driest and warmest experienced in the Waitaki Valley. Dry conditions continued through harvest, allowing individual parcels and clones to be picked as they reached maturity.

VINEYARD

Single-vineyard fruit from the Clos Ostler monopole in the Waitaki Valley. The dry-grown vines occupy a north-facing limestone escarpment at approximately 208–230 metres. Caroline’s is drawn from the broader five-clone planting of 115, 667, 777, UCD6 and Abel.
