The 2022 Palliser Estate Single Vineyard Hua Nui Pinot Noir Martinborough is a premium New Zealand Pinot Noir crafted from a certified organic vineyard, showcasing a refined, site-driven style with depth, purity and structure. Sourced entirely from the Hua Nui vineyard and matured in French oak, it reflects meticulous winemaking and the distinctive character of Martinborough terroir. The nose is fragrant and complex, showing cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with notes of baking spice, smoky oak, floral lift and subtle earthy minerality.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky, polished texture and fine, velvety tannins. Juicy red fruit, spice and savoury nuances are supported by fresh acidity, leading to a long, elegant and structured finish. The style is powerful yet refined, combining richness with precision—offering a single vineyard Pinot Noir with both immediate appeal and excellent aging potential.
