Woollaston Estates, Wingspan

$15.00

Varietal Birthplace Year
Pinot Noir Nelson 2007
Wingspan is named after the protected Harrier Hawks that soar above the vineyards in summer, scaring away small birds attracted to the ripening fruit on the vines. The wine is made in a clean, refreshing style with bright cherry aromas with an earthy note. The Wingspan shows lovely balance, and the slightly dusty tannins are supported by rich fruit that keep you reaching for the glass.
Black cherry, blood orange, red licorice, mushroom and five-spice.
Woollaston Estates, located in Nelson (New Zealand's sunniest region), boasts award-winning wines and one of the country's most scenic wineries with beautiful views of the vineyards, Tasman Bay and the Mount Arthur Mountain Range. Philip Woollaston entered the wine industry in 1993, developing a small vineyard with his wife, Chan. Originally intended as a hobby for retirement after a 22-year career in politics, his interest grew into passion to produce and export top-quality Pinot Noir. Through a partnership with Glenn Schaeffer, the dream has been fulfilled, though retirement is probably still a long way off. There are two distinct sub-regions in the Nelson area, and Woollaston Estates has 75 hectares of sustainable vineyards across both sub-regions, with grape varieties and clones matched to the terroir.
Like many good Pinot Noirs this wine is super-versatile: delicious with duck, salmon, veal and just about anything with mushrooms. My recipe for Cedar Planked Salmon with Toasted Spice Rub comes to mind. The richness of the spiced, sweet heat-rubbed salmon will pair amply well with the wine. I challenge you not to give it a try!
As well as a passion for fine wine, Philip and Glenn have a shared a love of art, literature and the Nelson landscape, so it is not surprising that Woollaston Estates is home to a dramatic collection of outdoor works by artists of international renown.
