Burn Cottage Moonlight Race Pinot Noir 2016

Burn Cottage Moonlight Race Pinot Noir 2016

• Region: Central Otago
• Sub-Region: Cromwell Basin
• Varieties: Pinot Noir

Vineyard Moonlight Race is sourced from Burn Cottage's biodynamically farmed estate, where schist soils, altitude, and a long growing season produce fruit with purity and fine structure. The vineyard approach emphasizes natural balance and site expression, even in this more accessible label.

Wine A beautifully evolved Pinot Noir with aromas of red cherry, dried rose, forest floor, and spice. The palate is silky and layered, with resolved tannins, savory detail, and a long, graceful finish.
