    Dry River

    Dry River is one of only 7 ‘Five Star’ Pinot Noir estates in New Zealand (with Felton Road, Ata Rangi, Mt. Difficulty and others). It can be consider a ‘First Growth’ of New Zealand. Unlike its larger Five Star companions, Dry River is still very much an insider's secret. They don’t go in for a lot of press and PR and instead focus their attention on producing spectacular wines. Because their production is so tiny (it took us years to get an allocation) publicity is simply unnecessary.

    Raymond Chan (19.50)

    Dark ruby-red colour with good depth. The nose has well-ripened dark-red and black berried fruits with nuances of dark red plums, unfolding an array of dark-red floral perfumes, and hints of dark herbs. A minerally edge is apparent to balance the fruit richness. Lovely detailing. Medium-full bodied, the palate features rich, sweet and plush fruit flavours of dark-red berry fruit and black cherries, along with notes of plums and liquorice. Some dark herb and floral lift provides elegance. The mouthfeel shows very fine-grained tannin extraction and excellent acid freshness and tension. The wine flows along a velvety line, carrying to a long, sustained, sweet fruited, bright finish with acid freshness. This is richer and more complete since last tasting. Fruit from the ‘Dry River Estate’, ‘Lovat’ and ‘Craighall’ sites, fermented with 30% whole clusters to 13.0% alc., the wine aged 12 months in 15% new 300 L and 350 L hogsheads.
