  • Goedhuis, August 2022

    A surprisingly overt nose: citrus flowers, elderflower and crushed stone. The palate is, by contrast, dancing rather than shouting: white peach, citrus and florals that weave around a centre spine of acid with hints of brioche. No single part dominates, allowing the flavours to all have their spot in the limelight. The dance settles to a seamless saline and mineral finish, pure to the very end.

  • Wine Advocate, December 2023, Score: 91

    The 2022 Bannockburn Chardonnay leads with roasted pineapple, green apple, crushed pine nuts and brine. In the mouth, the wine is glossy and slick, with polish and flow in equal measure. Only 4% to 6% new oak was used across all of the Chardonnay cuvées in 2022. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2023-2032.

Producer

Felton Road

Felton Road needs little introduction for lovers of New Zealand Pinot Noir. They are firmly established as one of the top producers of fine wine in the Central Otago region of New Zealand’s South Island. In addition to their renowned Pinot Noirs they also produce a couple of cuvees of Chardonnay, a Riesling and a Vin Gris.

Region

Central Otago

For many years New Zealand growers did not know which grape variety could grow in Central Otago. Situated in the very south of the South Island it was always thought that only white grape varieties could be planted. Nowadays however there is no turning back as Pinot Noir rules the roost. There are many reasons why pinot has had so much success in the region, including the dry, sunny climate and the well-draining schist soils. Pinot Noir from Central Otago is usually quite powerful with lots of vibrant fruit and relatively high alcohol.
