Product Notes

Millton La Cote Pinot Noir is an exquisite New Zealand wine that carries the harmony of a classic, ethereal Burgundy. This Pinot Noir, organically and biodynamically produced, weaves a symphony of ripe plum, cherry, and subtle spices, with hints of earthy forest floor notes and velvety tannins. The elegant play of flavours culminates in a lingering finish. It showcases brilliant harmony between acidity and complex fruity tones and is perfectly capable of graceful ageing. Connoisseurs recommend pairing this beguiling wine with succulent duck or tender lamb dishes. Truly a touch of refined indulgence, Millton La Cote is the epitome of fine red wine.

Tasting Notes

A bright fruited, expressive nose, with notes of dark cherry, juniper berry and an intriguing hint of fennel and manuka flower. There is a savoury taste with firm tannins and ripe fruit finishing with a lively mineral edge to balance. Unfined. Unfiltered.
