Reviewed October 2025This is so perfumed, with violet, fresh strawberry and black cherry aromas. It’s medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and a persistent and caressing finish. From organically grown grapes.

Wine Advocate
The 2024 Cornish Point Pinot Noir is succulent and concentrated, with abundantly dark fruit, sappy tannins and baking spices. There are notes of star anise and sweet licorice, tapenade and mulberry, with dark chocolate to close. The fruit in the Felton Road Pinots this year feels starkly different in character than previous vintages, and I do not attribute this to any major change in the vineyard but rather an effect of the season. This is very good. (EL)

Vinous
Heady and fruit-driven, the 2024 Pinot Noir Cornish Point is a supple and generous mouthful of Central Otago sun. A ripe entry gives way to the region's characteristic tension. Unfined, unfiltered fruit offers black cherry and spiced blackberry flavours, with finely integrated background notes of cedar spice. There is a chalkiness to the slippery tannins that lends texture and flow. (RG)
Notes
94 points, The Real Review: "Ripe black fruit with hints of spice and grainy tannins which firm up with tea flavours on the back. A more brooding wine with a deeper register of flavour, heading into new leather and earthy minerality. This needs a couple of years in bottle to emerge from its shell but has long-term potential."
