2007 Felton Road Pinot Noir Cornish Point Central Otago
About Felton Road
One of the elite wineries of central Otago, Felton Road is best known for its single-block Pinot Noirs, which are at once gripping and silky. The Block 3 and Block 5 bottlings come from Felton Road's home vineyard. This producer also offers bracing but subtle dry Riesling from light schist soil. The continental climate in central Otago provides long days of sunshine and low rainfall, conditions that encourage full ripening in the vineyards.

Expert Reviews
Good full red. Inviting nose offers wild berries, spices and meat. Fat, lush and sweet, offering a superb combination of textural richness and energy. A real fruit and spice bomb of a pinot. Finishes with explosive, lingering berry fruit.
