Pegasus Bay Age Release Pinot Noir 2015
Pinot Noir 2015 Aged Release "Focused and refined notes of dark cherries, damson plums, potpourri, wet bark and porcini. The medium-bodied palate has seamless tannins and bright acidity, showing notes of blueberry bush, violets, cocoa beans and dried herbs. A wonderfully integrated and refined new-world pinot with some old-world charm. Excellent." 97 Points, James Suckling Wine Reviews
"Gorgeously complex and inviting, the bouquet shows dark berry, dried mushroom, game, olive, and toasted nut aromas. The palate is wonderfully weighted and mouthfilling with rich fruit intensity, backed by savoury nuances, finishing superbly long and velvety. Beautifully maturing with delectable flavours, offering terrific drinking." 96 Points, Sam Kim – Wine Writer, NZ, Wine Orbit, www.wineorbit.co.nz
"Rereleased recently at 10 years old, the 2015 vintage was hand-picked at Waipara, in North Canterbury, from mature vines (many at that stage over 25 years old), and matured for 18 months in French oak barriques. It has deep, still bright colour. Enticingly perfumed, it is rich and sweet-fruited, savoury and complex, with gentle acidity, refined tannins, and lovely depth and harmony …" 5 STARS, Michael Cooper, Independent Wine Reviewer
Pegasus Bay is a family-owned and run business within the Waipara Valley, led by patriarch and Neuroscientist Ivan Donaldson. Free draining and low fertility soils produce low yields of high quality, flavourful grapes, which fully express the qualities of Pegasus Bay’s unique setting. The range of wines is led by diverse and ageworthy styles of Pinot Noir and Riesling, with highly expressive Semillon, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer and Malbec Cabernet Sauvignon blends complementing the portfolio.
