The 2024 Shaky Bridge Pioneer Pinot Noir is a fresh Central Otago red showing red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry with violet, subtle spice and gentle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely structured, with bright acidity, silky tannins and layers of red fruit, savoury herbs and subtle mineral character. The finish is dry, fresh and persistent.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Pinot Noir drinkers who enjoy vibrant, cool-climate New Zealand reds with freshness and finesse. Best enjoyed over the next 4–7 years. Pair with roast duck and plum, pork belly with fennel, wild mushroom risotto or grilled salmon with herb salsa.
