About this wine

A pinnacle of North Canterbury winemaking, Pegasus Bay Prima Donna Pinot Noir is an intensely structured and expressive wine with remarkable depth and refinement. Fragrant notes of pomegranate and preserved red fruits intertwine with smoky bacon, fallen leaves, cedar, and toasted spice, creating a complex and savoury bouquet. The palate is rich and layered, delivering outstanding depth and structure, with fine-grained, polished tannins seamlessly integrated with brisk acidity. Concentrated yet elegantly focused, this Pinot Noir finishes with a long, lively tail that lingers with finesse. Perfect for cellaring or pairing with duck, venison, or wild mushroom dishes.
