Pinot Noir 'Te Wahi' by Cloudy Bay is one of New Zealand's most interesting. Grapes from the Northburn and Calvert vineyards, cultivated on the Central Otago estate, the southernmost wine-growing area of the New World, with a cool climate and suitable soil. The winemaking and aging techniques aim to approach the level of the great French wines. Matured for 14 months in French oak barrels. Full-bodied and elegant red with a decidedly complex, intense and soft sip, with well-integrated tannin supported by notable fruity richness, with spicy and toasted hints, typical of the production area, and toasted and smoky nuances brought about by the long maturation in wood. An absolutely territorial and typical wine, like its name which in Maori means 'the place'.
