Description

The Wine Advocate (issue 122) Robert M. Parker, Jr, U.S.A.
"Both of Felton Road's Pinot Noirs are breakthrough efforts in New Zealand, and compete with the finest wines being made in California, Oregon and Burgundy's Cote D'Or."


The Wine Magazine April/May 2001, New Zealand's Top 20 Pinot Noirs
Felton Road "This was the highest scoring winery of the tasting, its 1999 and 1998 Block 3 both highly regarded by nearly everybody. The 1999 Block 5 was less highly rated. Some tasters seeing peppery green aromas, quite strong savoury, stalky, whole-bunch fermented characters, while others liked its 'camphor chest"' oak and 'Doris plum" fruit. But the Block 3 wines elicited a raft of superlatives. The 1998 showed sappy, stalky, whole-bunch characters and a layered, gamy palate. "Sweet fruit and charred oak," said Bulleid. "Perfumed herb garden," said Caillard. The 1999 was beautiful: sweet, ripe cherry fruit and autumnal whole-buch fermented complexities; tobacco, lightly vegetal, stacked with interesting secondary characters. "Lovely palate, great length" said Bulleid. "Chocolatey with a slight grip on the finish, said Caillard, scoring it 19/20."


Robert Joseph Sunday Telegraph Good Wine Guide, UK
"Felton Road: This is an instant superstar producing what may be New Zealand's top Pinot Noir as well as some very fine Rieslings."

Felton Road was established in 1991 and is today owned by Nigel Greening (purchased from original owner Stewart Elms in 2000). Located in Central Otago on the south island of New Zealand, the vineyards in the Bannockburn region have a northerly exposure to help maximise ripeness. This is crucial as Central Otago is the most southerly wine making region in the world and therefore the coldest. Here, vineyards are nestled into small macroclimates totally surrounded by high mountains, many of which are snowcapped all year round. Winemaker Blair Walter's experience in Oregon and Burgundy has stood him in good stead for coaxing the best out of the property's vines. He aims to produce wines of elegance, complexity and exceptional depth of fruit. As a result Felton Road has become something of a 'cult' winery; being the first to produce a new style of Pinot Noir from outside Burgundy. The range is increasingly organic and consists of several single vineyard Pinot Noirs; including Cornish Point, Calvert, Block 3 and Block 5, and Chardonnay and Riesling too.
