Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir

Felton Road is based in Central Otago on the South island of New Zealand. Expression of terroir and respect of the land is first and foremost. They produce critically acclaimed Pinot Noir as well as Chardonnay, Riesling and Vin Gris. The 4 single vineyard Pinot Noir sites sit on Bannockburn soil, giving the wines excellent texture, floral aromatics, dense fruit concentration, fine tannins and a distinct minerality. Certified both Organic and Bio Dynamic by Demeter and BioGro, Felton Road aim to deliver their fruit to the winery in a pure state. Indigenous yeasts and malolactic fermentation are standard and no fining and filtration before the final bottling. The unique gravity flow winery enables the grapes to be gently destemmed directly into open-top fermenters whilst the transport of wine to barrel is also filled by gravity to the underground barrel cellars.
