Prophet's Rock Rocky Point Pinot Noir, Central Otago
Rocky Point is an estate-grown Pinot Noir. Uniform handling of all Pinot Noir in the winery is done with the aiming of showing the fruit at its best. Prior to bottling, the Rocky Point Pinot Noir is barrel-aged and typically expressive and perfumed.
Central Otago, located at the southern end of the South Island of New Zealand, is the world’s most southerly wine region. In a short amount of time, the area has established itself as a world-class region for Pinot Noir. The picturesque region is surrounded by mountains ensuring a cool semi-continental climate that experiences a large diurnal range contributing to the creation of intensely concentrated wines with perfume, and complexity. Central Otago’s vineyard area is divided into six distinct sub regions each with their own climate and wine style. Best known for producing intensely Fruity medium to full bodied Pinot Noir, Central Otago’s cool climate also produces outstanding Riesling as well as superb bottle-fermented Sparkling wines.
