Dense soy and stewed cherry dominate, pushing beyond Central Otago's mineral-driven elegance. The palate shows overripe concentration that veers toward Port territory, masking Pinot's natural grace. Lacks the region's signature transparency and finesse.

Burn Cottage

Burn Cottage is a Central Otago estate producing Pinot Noir across multiple vineyard designates, alongside an unusual Riesling/Grüner Veltliner blend that has become something of a regional oddity worth seeking out.
