The 2022 Dry River Pinot Noir Magnum (1500ml) is a benchmark New Zealand Pinot Noir from Martinborough, one of the country’s most respected regions for the variety. Crafted from low-yielding vines on gravelly soils, it delivers a complex and savoury profile with aromas of black cherry, plum skin and raspberry layered with spice, dried herbs, graphite and earthy nuances.
On the palate is medium-bodied yet deeply structured, showing silky tannins, vibrant acidity and remarkable precision through a long, elegant and mineral-driven finish. The magnum format enhances the wine’s ageing potential, allowing even greater complexity and refinement over time.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is one of the most serious and collectible Pinot Noir expressions from New Zealand - perfect for Burgundy lovers seeking finesse, structure and longevity. The 1500ml magnum is ideal for cellaring or special occasions with friends and family. Pair with duck, lamb, mushroom dishes or game meats. Enjoy with decanting now or cellar beautifully for 10–15+ years.
