Peregrine Saddleback Pinot Noir 2022

FIVE STARS 94/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

An out and out winner with a deserved following amongst canny Kiwi wine buyers. Saddleback may be Peregrine's entry level label but most Central Otago producers would be proud to call it their flagship.

This Pinot Noir is full of bright, juicy flavours like red cherry and wild berries, with a lovely floral aroma and just a hint of spice. The fruit comes from sunny, dry vineyards in Pisa, Cromwell and Bendigo, which gives the wine its ripe, generous character. It is smooth and silky on the palate, with soft tannins, plenty of flavour, and a fresh lift that keeps it lively. A bit of time in older French oak adds a gentle touch of polish without taking away from the fruit.

Easy to drink and full of personality, this is a great example of Central Otago Pinot. Whether you are new to Pinot or already a fan, this one is sure to impress. Obvious value.
