The Basalte Pinot Noir is the bedrock bottling from the Willamette Valley. It is sourced from vineyards in two AVAs - Chehalem Mountains and Dundee Hills - that have fairly thin volcanic clay topsoil over fractured basalt. This type of very rocky soil lends itself to full-bodied, firmly structured wines. The Basalte captures this expressive character of the soil, with deep red fruit and a fine tannic structure that maintains the elegant style we are seeking.

Ideal for those who seek excellent value and reliable quality for every day enjoyment. On the palate, a heady mix of dried spices and fruits of the forest, with lovely supple tannins.

They Trekked down to Central Otago to find the very best expression of Pinot Noir. Having had quite a lot of experience with fruit from the area, for us the sub-region of Gibbston shows Pinot Noir in its most finest form, and therefore we went on a mission to source fruit from a stunning little pocket just underneath the very dramatic and imposing Nevis Bluff. Like thier whites; structure, acidity, texture and an element of savouriness are the watchwords that are transposed into this wine, with that classic Gibbston nose of wild herb and briar.

This wine has a lovely red colour. It is fine, delicate, subtle but still vivid! Tannins are delicate. Aromas of cherry and morello cherry.

It is nicely ripe and gently lifted on the nose showing dark cherry, sweet strawberry, mixed spice and dried herb notes. The palate displays juicy fruit flavours and smooth texture, leading to a lengthy fruity finish.
