Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is one of the most versatile red varieties in the range, prized for its lighter body, bright acidity, and ability to pair with almost anything from salmon to roast chicken. New Zealand produces some of the most sought-after examples worldwide, particularly out of Central Otago and Martinborough, with smaller amounts also coming from Marlborough and Hawke's Bay. If you're chasing a specific New Zealand style, Central Otago Pinot Noir and Martinborough Pinot Noir are both worth exploring on their own, or browse New Zealand Pinot Noir for the fuller regional picture.
