Vinous on FELTON ROAD

Titre

New Zealand Pinot Noir producer Felton Road is an organic and biodynamic estate that has evolved in the past two decades, moving toward more precision and freshness [...] In the vineyard, there are exciting developments, including regenerative farming. Felton Road have abandoned tillage to prevent carbon loss while plowing and installed underground irrigation so it lies below the cover crop. Drones have replaced tractors, which spray sulfur on the rows for mildew protection. They are quick, have no ground impact issues and don’t damage cover crops. They have also implemented new technology that enables us to map the spread of spores in the vineyard using PCR DNA technology so that mildew can be detected before it becomes a problem, allowing the drones to spray proactively rather than reactively.

James Halliday (Australian Wine Companion), September 2024


This 'best of' blend of four vineyards; Cornish Point, Calvert, MacMuir and The Elms, instantly lures you in with aromas of wild strawberry, red and dark cherries and juicy plum tones. Hints of violets, pomegranate, vanilla, star anise, Chinese BBQ shop, mountain herbs and spice. Succulent and finely structured, it's a wine that gives a lot, both in flavour and inherent enjoyment with its infectious, sapid energy and toothsome, fine tannin architecture.
