  2022 Pinot Noir, Rockburn

  £3540

  Expressive aromas lead to a deeply fruity palate displaying notes of red and black cherry layered with rich notes of mocha. Supple, silky tannins envelop the smooth palate through to a long finish. This wine shows classic Rockburn elegance, integrity and balance.

  Rockburn takes its name from the rugged, rock-strewn, burn-scarred landscape of Central Otago. Situated on the 45th parallel, Rockburn shares a climate that is similar to Burgundy. The vineyards are surrounded by mountains to the west, whose seaward slopes are rainforest, receiving 5,000mm of rain per annum. To the east is a barren, moon-like landscape that receives less than 25mm of rain per year. Situated between these extremes, lay the Rockburn vineyards, which are producing Pinot Noir of stunning quality.

  2013 Pinot Noir Lot 21, Viña Leyda

  £3650

  Lot 21 Pinot Noir is a complex and elegant wine, with delicate aromas of strawberries, red cherries, orange peel and herbs with a subtle earth complexity.

Clusters are carefully selected to keep yields extremely low. Less than 1.75 pounds of fruit is produced by each plant.

  2018 South Coast Pinot Noir, Lismore

  £3800

  An elegant Pinot Noir delivering a complex bouquet of crushed rose petals, wild jasmine and fresh French herbs. The palate shows beautiful purity with layered red fruits, cranberry, raspberry, silky tannins and a long, savoury finish.

  This wine was made from Pinot Noir from 2 regions, 70% of the grapes came from Stanford, Walker Bay and 30% from Elgin, both in the cool climate region Cape South Coast. The vines are all Burgundian, clone 115. The Stanford vineyard is close to the southernmost tip of Africa and is located in one of South Africa’s coolest wine-producing regions. The maritime vineyard enjoys a long ripening season, because of the strong cooling winds that are prevalent in the summer. This microclimate is ideal for creating a long hang time, concentrating the flavours in the berries while retaining natural acidity levels. Elgin is situated at 400 metres above sea level and ripens even later than the coastal vineyard. The vines here, planted in shale and clay soils, produce fleshier fruit, adding weight to the blend.

  2020 ‘Flint Fields’ Blanc de Noirs, Simpsons Wine Estate

  £3995

  This exceptional top-tier English Sparkling wine was created from estate-grown Pinot Noir grapes.  Burnished gold and with a delicate mousse, this wine has a luxurious, vanilla cream and fine pastry nose, with flavours of fresh Alpine strawberry, toasted brioche and a smooth elegant finish.

  Simpsons Wine Estate is situated in the Elham Valley; an unspoilt seam in the North Downs of Kent where the contours of the land, the climate and the soil are excellent for viticulture. The intensely lime-rich chalk soil forms part of the same chalk ridge that stretches from southern England through Champagne and on to Burgundy. The grapes come from the Roman Road vineyard, named after the route the Romans first marched when invading England in AD 43.  They are grown on south-facing slopes, ensuring heat accumulation in the day and cold air drainage at night. The vineyard is less than eight miles from the coast, providing a crucial maritime influence insulating the fruit against intense temperature variations.

  Zalto Burgundy Glass

  £4000

  This is a must-have glass for any serious wine drinker and without doubt our favourite glass here at Wine Republic.  It really excels with expressive, perfumed wines such as Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo but we also think it is a brilliant glass for Chardonnay and Viognier.

  The Zalto Burgundy glass is the widest of all of the Zalto glasses and in turn, has the largest surface area thus allowing for rapid aeration.  The shape of the bowl is the key to making this glass world-leading, it allows those delicate flavours and aromas to be maximised. The narrow rim and straight edges hold these aromas within the glass allowing for maximum appreciation of the aromas of your chosen wine.   Over the years of using this glass, we have noticed it accentuates spice, berry and floral characteristics of the wine.

  2016 Pinot Noir, Stargazer

  £4500

  This is the first Stargazer Pinot Noir to come from the Palisander Vineyard, purchased in February 2016. Located in the Tea Tree sub-region of the Coal River Valley, twenty minutes north-east of Hobart, it was planted with vines in 2002.   It is very aromatic with a lifted nose which is firmly in the red fruits spectrum: think cranberries, red cherries and pomegranate. Light and delicate the 2016 Pinot Noir is all about crunchy red fruits and a creamy, layered texture. The tannins are lacy and delicate. Some more refined, savoury dried herb characters emerge with air.   Delicious and rare only 2880 bottles produced.

  Owner and winemaker of Stargazer, Samantha is a former Red Winemaker of the Year, a title won whilst head winemaker at McLaren Vale’s Wirra Wirra Vineyards.   Now bringing her skills to bear on her own project she is undoubtedly going to propel Stargazer onto ever greater heights.

  Stargazer pays tribute to Abel Tasman, who as an explorer and navigator, must have spent a fair amount of time gazing towards the heavens. Tasman, a Dutchman under the employ of the United East India Company was the first European to sight Tasmania (on 24 November 1642) and then the South Island of New Zealand, nineteen days later on 13 December.
