Burn Cottage 'Burn Cottage Vineyard' Pinot Noir

Burn Cottage’s ‘home’ vineyard is a twenty-four-hectare estate in the foothills of the Pisa range in Central Otago, New Zealand. This vineyard has been managed by husband-and-wife Marquis & Dianne Sauvage, with utmost care since it was established in 2002. The Sauvages contacted Ted Lemon, owner and winemaker of Littorai Wines in California, to seek his involvement with not only the vineyard but the bottling of some luscious and creamy Pinot Noir. This wine is meticulous and perfumed with lovely aromatics of cherry, purple plum, violets and spice layered with hints of savoury bramble and a touch of scorched earth. While drinkable now, this offering will also undoubtedly age for another decade.
