Tasting Note

The inaugural release of Swiftsure Bannockburn Pinot Noir comes from the stunning 2022 vintage. The wine has a powerful aromatic; both fruitful and savoury with boysenberry, rhubarb and cherry blossom interwoven with tendrils of smoke and a faint scent of nori. The palate shows good density with a succession of berry fruit characters and a touch more of the umami feel. The tannins are wrapped in the warmth of vintage days with a vibrancy that evokes the cool jewelled Central Otago night sky. This beautifully crafted Pinot Noir is a fine expression of the Bannockburn sub- region; intense but perfumed, poised yet slightly wild. Structured with finesse, designed for long-term aging and an equal measure of youthful exuberance that will reward early drinking.

Product Notes

Grown in the rich soils of Bannockburn, Swiftsure by Man O' War Pinot Noir wine exudes elegance and refinement. This sophisticated drop boasts an enchanting bouquet of red cherry, plum, and cinnamon spice, with subtle earthy undertones. Its palate is beautifully balanced with silky tannins and a savoury complexity that reflects the cool climate viticulture of the region. The charm of this wine lies in its graceful ageing potential. Whether savoured now or cellared for future indulgence, the Swiftsure by Man O' War Pinot Noir offers a sublime tasting experience that leaves a lasting impression on the senses.
