Brand: Trinity Hill
Grapes: Pinot Noir
Vintage: 2023
ABV: 13%
Who/What/How:
- Trinity Hill spans 80 hectares of vineyards across Hawke's Bay and Gimblett Gravels. These are two of New Zealand's premier red wine regions and have established a reputation for much more than light and fresh Pinot Noir. Indeed, this Hawke's Bay Pinot Noir shows a chunk more body and spice than many of its compatriots.
Taste:
- Trinity Hill Hawke's Bay Pinot Noir is still wonderfully acidic, with limited yet velvety tannins. It is also still bursting with red fruit flavours of cherry, raspberry and strawberry, which is what you'd expect from a New Zealand Pinot Noir. However, the high percentage of gravel soil has really aided ripening which provides the wine with strong flavours of blueberry, plum and a brambly spice.
