The Quartz Reef Bendigo Pinot Noir 2022, crafted by the renowned winemaker Rudi Bauer, exemplifies his reputation for producing some of New Zealand's finest Pinots. This wine is a testament to his extraordinary winemaking talents, shining brightly on both the national and international stage. The 2022 vintage is a standout, offering a captivating charm with intense perfume, elegance, and impeccable balance. Its nuanced tannins are suave and sophisticated, seamlessly complementing the wine's complex structure. The result is a breathtaking Pinot Noir, delivering an unforgettable experience that underscores the excellence of the Bendigo subregion and Rudi's mastery.

A subtle bouquet with fragrant aromas of red fruits, cedar, spice, a herbal streak, all complemented by a touch of high toast oak, layered throughout with savoury complexing elements.

A striking core of vibrant red fruits gives a zippy nature combined with the fine grain, and dusty, tannins framing the mid-palate fruit, making for a superbly textured wine resonating the class of wine within. The flavours, tannin and texture linger forever. Simply spellbinding with a long life ahead in a temperature-controlled cellar, 10-15years+. The recommended serving temperature is 13-15 degrees.
