Description

Corofin love to make wines that tell a story about Marlborough; they set out to make wines that reflect the passion and dedication of the grape growers in the vineyards, maintaining the integrity and uniqueness of fruit from each site.

The Wrekin Vineyard is a small organically certified site in Brancott Valley and this resulting Pinot is a gutsier expression than their Settlement Vineyard Pinot.

Dark berry fruits, dark florals with a hint of a spice, this is a serious and seductive Pinot with a lot of personality.

Planted in 2002, the Wrekin Vineyard is a small, organically certified (Biogro) and biodynamically farmed site at the top of the Brancott Valley. Whole berries were placed in a sealed tank for five days and wild yeast fermentation lasted eight days before the wine was immediately pressed off to minimise extraction. It was then raised in seasoned French barrels before finishing its élevage in tank. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.

95 Points - "Cherry, liquorice root, plum and Chinese food mind games (AND THEN?), also some bouquet garni perfume. It’s medium-bodied, cherry and plum. Some sweet and sour combinations here, pumice stone tannin, a little pomegranate zip to acidity, and a cool ‘mineral’ finish of excellent length. A whole lot of character and interest. Terrific." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
