Description

The 2023 Nanny Goat Pinot Noir is a true reflection of Central Otago's Pinot Noir pedigree, and as always represents exceptional value for Pinot lovers.

Nanny Goat Vineyard is renowned for its dedication to showcasing Central Otago’s rich terroir through careful winemaking practices. Fruit is hand-picked and gently fermented with up to 40% whole bunches, allowing natural yeast to bring out depth and vibrancy. The wine then spends time on skins before maturing in French oak barrels, imbuing it with subtle layers of spice and texture.

Expect a vibrant, complex profile, with juicy red and dark fruits accompanied by hints of toasted spices and a fine, sinewy tannin structure that enhances the wine’s depth. This Pinot Noir offers a beautifully long, balanced finish, making it perfect for drinking now or cellaring for added complexity.

The 2023 Nanny Goat Pinot Noir is a stunning expression of Central Otago’s unique Pinot Noir character - a fresh, elegant, and satisfying wine for any occasion.

WINEMAKER COMMENTS

Bright and lively on the nose with vivid aromas of raspberry, blueberry
and red currant fruits immediately evident while nuances of toasted
brown spice, dried earth and subtle herbaceous notes add complexity.
The palate is vibrant up front with a core of juicy fruits suggestive of
wild berries, red cherry and tamarillo. Cola and toasted spices add layers
of interest to the mid whilst a sinewy thread of fine-grained tannin
entwines the palate and ushers you towards a pleasantly lingering finish.

VINEYARD
A regional blend of fruit grown at our own Queensberry and Bendigo Vineyards alongside fruit produced by our growers throughout the Queensberry, Bendigo, Pisa and Bannockburn sub regions of Central
Otago.

WINEMAKING

Fruit was hand-picked and predominantly destemmed into small 4.2T open top fermenters for a brief pre fermentation maceration before ferment was allowed to begin utilising naturally occurring yeast. A small number of ferments contained up to 40% whole bunches where stem ripeness allowed.

Ferments were managed judiciously, with a maximum of two light
plunges daily at the peak of fermentation to avoid over extraction of tannin. Wines spent between 24 and 32 days on skins prior to pressing to 225L oak barrels for maturation.

92 points - "Intense, concentrated wine with black cherry/berry, raspberry, vanilla, chocolate flavours supported by fine, drying tannins and fruity acidity. Should age well. Give your glass a good swirl to aerate the wine." - Bob Campbell (The Real Review)

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.
