Sourced from one of Felton Road’s most celebrated single vineyards, it combines purity, structure, and elegance with the kind of depth that has made Cornish Point a reference point for the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby core with a polished, transparent edge. The nose is layered and expressive, with red cherry, wild strawberry, plum, and subtle floral tones, supported by spice, savory herbs, and earthy mineral nuance.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is finely textured and precise, balancing ripe red and dark berry fruit with freshness, fine tannins, and a long, graceful finish. It has the structure to develop beautifully over time, and while already highly appealing, it should gain further complexity with several years of cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCornish Point sits in Central Otago, where cool continental conditions, intense sunlight, and free-draining soils create ideal conditions for Pinot Noir.
