Tasting Notes

Energetic Central Otago Pinot Noir Nouveau with electric colour intensity and vibrant fruit character that defines this unique early-drinking style. Sweet smokiness sits atop fresh raspberries and blueberries on the nose, creating an enticing aromatic profile.

The palate delivers a signature pop of fruitiness with juicy freshness and gravelly minerality support. This energetic Nouveau style showcases remarkable fruit purity and vibrancy from low-yield, small berry fruit with minimal intervention winemaking.

A joyful, early-drinking Pinot made to enjoy young — all bright fruit and energy.

Why you'll love it: fun, fruit-forward and easy — lightly chilled and poured with friends; no cellaring, no fuss, just a great glass now.

The Style

Nouveau style celebrates the vibrant, fresh fruit character of newly made wine, designed for immediate enjoyment rather than cellaring. This Central Otago interpretation brings New Zealand's distinctive terroir to this classic early-drinking tradition with remarkable intensity and focus.

About Amisfield

Established in 1988 beneath the Pisa Range, Amisfield has grown into one of Central Otago's defining estates, specialising in Pinot Noir and aromatic whites from a single vineyard. A minimal-intervention philosophy lets the site's character carry through, and the estate has been fully certified organic by BioGro New Zealand since 2021, following a conversion begun in 2015. It's a genuine, restaurant-quality expression of its place.

Perfect with charcuterie, grilled salmon, or a cheese board. Lightly chilled, its bright fruit and freshness make it an easy match for casual entertaining.
