Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir 2022 - Central Otago
Bottle size: 750ml
Perfumed floral notes abound amongst a background of dark fruits, Indian spice and a savoury earthiness. The vines, now 20 years old, are deeply settled in the silt soils of this remarkable site - providing a distinctive and consistent vineyard expression. Florality, subtlety and harmony, with finely chiseled tannins, are the hallmarks of Calvert. This 2021 is as fine as it gets.
Felton Road farms four properties totalling 34 ha in
the Bannockburn subregion of Central Otago. Calvert
Vineyard is located on Felton Road and is just 1km east
of The Elms Vineyard and the winery. The soils at
Calvert are deep heavy silts with a thin layer of loess
topsoil. Meticulous summer management of a single
vertical shoot positioned (VSP) canopy ensures even
and early fruit maturity. Shoot thinning, shoot
positioning, leaf plucking, bunch thinning and harvest
are all carried out by hand to ensure optimum quality
fruit. Cover crops are planted between rows to assist
in vine balance and to improve soil health and general
biodiversity.
