Ara Resolute Pinot Noir 2021

Aromas of black cherries, boysenberries, mocha with hints of blueberry. On the palate dark fruit is underpinned by smoky, earthy flavours. This organic Pinot Noir boasts a rich palate, fine tannins and juicy acidity. Expect fantastic length, with a complex lingering finish.

Sourced from two high density planted, low yielding vineyards in Marlborough's Southern Valleys

Then, the expertise of our winemakers allows the wine to speak for itself. The wine is cold soaked for up to six days, with a portion of this in whole bunches. The warm 28ºC ferment is hand plunged only once every 24 hours at most, before the wine spends another 14 days on skins. Free-run juice and light pressings combine to give the wine richness and structure.

Maturation takes place for twelve months in 300L French oak hogshead barrels.
