The estate is recognized for producing cool-climate Pinot Noir that reflects the rugged mountain environment, combining careful vineyard management with a winemaking philosophy focused on purity, balance, and regional expression. Their Brassknocker range represents the winery’s “village level” Pinot Noir, showcasing the distinctive terroir and freshness that have helped establish Central Otago as one of the world’s premier Pinot Noir regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Brassknocker Central Otago Pinot Noir is richly aromatic and expressive, offering notes of ripe cherry, dark plum, red berries, floral tones, oak spice, and mocha. Crafted from separately harvested vineyard parcels, the wine undergoes cold soaking, wild and cultured yeast fermentation, extended skin contact, and partial ageing in seasoned French oak to build complexity while preserving freshness. On the palate it is supple and balanced, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, polished finish that makes it approachable now while also suitable for further cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTry pairing with lamb samosas, curries, or duck with plum sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nicholas Pearce Wines Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47845745721562,"sku":"292820-1","price":587.4,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0420\/7922\/3966\/files\/PunsetPre-order_17_4cd6bc5f-a2b8-439a-bcda-2fc81c1acde4.png?v=1778265796","url":"https:\/\/www.npwines.com\/products\/brassknocker-pinot-noir-2023","provider":"Nicholas Pearce Wines Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
