This Pinot Noir expresses black fruits like boysenberries and blueberries with subtle floral notes and gentle acidity. The cocoa powder tannins and smoky toasty notes add complexity with a generous earthy textural finish.
Organically grown with wildflower gardens between the vineyard rows and regenerative viticulture to keep New Zealand’s soils healthy and ecosystems thriving. EarthGarden Pinot Noir is bursting with flavour as nature intended.

Viticulture
Our key focus is to be environmentally responsible and to operate using sustainable practices in order to protect the land for future generations.

The grapes for this wine came from our Templar, Attorney and Belmonte vineyards
Serving Suggestions
This wine pairs well with lamb, but rich enough to enhance slowcooked beef cheeks. For a plant-based alternative, try with mushroom or truffle-accented dishes to accentuate it’s earthy character.
