2016 Pinot Noir Vintage Trio
|
With time the personality of each vineyard site becomes more expressed, with this in mind we have put together a selection of our three Pinot Noirs from 2016, our older vine Ata Rangi Pinot Noir, the single site McCrone and our Crimson Pinot Noir which is a blend of parcels with vines from 5 to 20 years. This is a great opportunity to compare these three wines with four years of age.
Nga Waka
Nga Waka was established at Martinborough in 1988. We are a family-owned winegrower producing small volumes of fine Martinborough wine from estate-grown grapes. Our name is taken from Nga Waka A Kupe (The Canoes of Kupe). The three hills, which lie side by side like upturned canoes, form the backdrop for the town of Martinborough and its surrounds.
Legend has it that the hills were formed by the three canoes of the famed Polynesian explorer Kupe, which were carried inland by a huge earthquake and came to rest in the valley behind Martinborough.
