Felton Road Block 5 Pinot Noir, Central Otago
Felton Road Block 5 is a monument of structural density and power, fiercely chased by global collectors for its masculine, age-worthy character. Sourced from a north-facing, elevated biodynamic slope with heavy calcified soils, this block forces vine roots deep into the earth. The fruit is vinified using minimalist intervention and aged in fine-grained French oak. The resulting wine is multi-layered and muscular, showcasing dark plum, wild thyme, ironstone minerality, and svelte, gravelly tannins.
