Rippon 2013 Mature Vine Pinot Noir

Rippon is in Wanaka, at one of the most picturesque locations in the world.
Mature vines, biodynamic practices, indigenous yeasts, no filtering or fining… this is the foundation on which is built one of New Zealand’s icon pinots.

Rippon's Mature Vine Pinot is a dreamy, seductive wine. Garnet hued, the overwhelming scents are violet and rose with raspberry. It's spicy too. Ultra silky smooth in the mouth, it's like chewing candied violet. The Rippon folk consider themselves custodians of the land, the aim to leave it in better shape than when they began.
