Description
What kind of wine it is
Kim Crawford Pinot Noir is a still red wine that offers an authentic interpretation of Pinot Noir. In the glass, it displays a brilliant ruby red colour of medium depth. On the nose, it is defined by clear aromas of fresh berries, hints of oak, and characteristic nuances of undergrowth. The palate is rich and smooth, supported by a pleasant texture of soft tannins that ensures perfect balance. It also possesses the structural solidity required to evolve in the cellar over the years.
Where it comes from
This label is a clear expression of the winemaking tradition of New Zealand, a region with highly favourable environmental conditions. Production is entrusted to Kim Crawford, a winery founded in Auckland and renowned for its distinctive approach.

How it is produced
Ageing lasts five months and is divided between French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, an essential step to integrate the woody notes with the natural freshness of the fruit. When paired with food, the wine enhances flavourful dishes such as herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risottos, rich pasta dishes, cheeses, and pork cuts. To encourage a wide aromatic opening, it is recommended to decant for one hour before serving, at an ideal temperature between 14 and 16 degrees Celsius.
