Craggy Range Aroha Te Muna Pinot Noir 2022 750ml
Aroha is the top Pinot from one of New Zealand's leading producers. Every vintage offers huge grace and depth, subtly expressive red fruit layered with savoury, game and earthy spice notes that unfold in the glass. Deep, nuanced and these days definitive of the Martinborough style, this is stunning wine to decant and enjoy in the near and medium term.
Its Origins
Craggy Range began with the desire to create a legacy. When Terry Peabody visited New Zealand in 1997 he was introduced to Steve Smith, MW. Terry sensed an exciting possibility in New Zealand; the exceptional climate and spirit of the people aligned with his own philosophy and desire to cut a new path. He wanted to create wines that would become internationally regarded as New World classics. The two men made an important decision from the beginning - to select and source the best land in the country, and to plant the vines perfectly suited to that soil and climate. The winery - one of the most technically advanced ever built in New Zealand - is known for uncompromising standards and meticulous craftsmanship.

93/100 James Suckling
"A fresh and vivid pinot with lightness and brightness. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and a crisp finish. Attractive strawberry flavors at the end. More delicate than usual but delicious. Nice to drink now."
