Description Dr Forrest and his wife Brigid (also a doctor) use techniques in the vineyard to allow the grapes to obtain maximum flavour, but keep sugar (and therefore alcohol) levels down. No fancy winery or laboratory tricks – just some very clever canopy management and timing as to when they pick. This superb Pinot is made with fruit from North and Middle Wairau Valley vineyards, planted over 20 years ago. Get ready for shimmering floral notes, red summer fruits, dark cherry, raisins, and a nutty, savoury undertone. It’s lovely. 9.5%
