Tasting Notes

Peregrine Pinot Noir 2022

Double Gold | 97 Points | NZ International Wine Show 2024

"Fragrant, floral pinot noir with bright cherry, cassis and violet flavours. Elegant wine with energy. Supple but not complex and showing a diverse range of flavours. Should develop well with bottle age." 94 Points, Bob Campbell MW, Wines of the Week (August 2024), The Real Review

"Cherry, thyme, a little bit of a smoky paprika thing here too. It’s medium-bodied, crisp red fruits and cherry, maybe a little bit tangy too, offering some dried orange peel, with light sooty and powdery tannin, distinct dried herb aromatics, with a finish of good length. It’s a bit zesty and herbal, but a good wine all up. Very Otago in character. It’s maybe a little rubbery, but there you have it." 92 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

"Fragrant nose, slightly brooding with dark cherry, dried herb, liquorice, wild raspberry, pomegranate, lots of layers of ripe fruit and some satisfying earthy notes. Delivers classic Central style with poise and balance. Tannins keep the sweet-fruited core in check; savoury and dry on the finish. Organic." 92 Points, Decanter

Peregrine Wines are an iconic family winery and a benchmark of premium Central Otago Pinot Noir, in particular. The McLachlan family established Peregrine in 1998 in Gibbston with a holistic farming philosophy that they approach with fastidious care for the land. The vineyards are grown organically and with integrated crops and livestock farming, it is a rigorously managed estate that has earned a reputation for excellence both domestically and internationally.
