Elegance, perfume and site transparency define this refined Central Otago Pinot Noir, presented in the 1.5L Magnum format. The larger bottle allows for slower, more graceful evolution, enhancing aromatic detail, textural finesse and cellaring potential. Sourced from the Calvert Vineyard in Bannockburn, a north-east facing site on deep loess soils over schist, this wine reflects a place known for finesse and aromatic lift rather than overt power.
In the glass, the 2024 vintage is finely etched and composed, with pure red berry fruit layered with floral and subtle savoury notes. Biodynamic viticulture, indigenous fermentation and gentle extraction preserve clarity and balance, while carefully judged oak adds quiet spice without overshadowing the vineyard’s natural expression. Bright acidity and fine, powdery tannins give the wine shape, flow and persistence.
In Magnum, the Calvert Pinot Noir shows effortless poise and mineral clarity, offering immediate elegance with the capacity to evolve beautifully over time. A thoughtful choice for extended cellaring or special occasions.

“Beautifully perfumed with red cherries, flowers and subtle spice. Medium-bodied with silky tannins, excellent balance and a long, refined finish. Elegant and precise.”
“Fine-boned and expressive, showing lifted aromatics, red fruit purity and a flowing, mineral-driven palate. Poised, detailed and built to age gracefully.”
“Fragrant and detailed with red berry fruit, floral notes and gentle savoury complexity. Fine tannins and fresh acidity give length and balance.”
