Red Hut Pinot Noir (6pk)
Region: Central Otago | Lowburn Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir Winemaker: Corey Ryan and Mike Farrugia Alcohol: 13.8% Summary: Red Hut is a collaboration between longtime friends and wine professionals Corey Ryan and Mike Farrugia, inspired by New Zealand’s iconic backcountry huts that offer shelter and connection. Drawing on deep industry ties, they source small parcels from standout subregions to craft contemporary wines with authenticity and character wines that capture the real New Zealand, both in the glass and in the heart. Winemaking: Fruit from a single Lowburn vineyard was hand-harvested, destemmed with 20% whole bunches, and cold-soaked before natural fermentation. The must was hand-plunged twice daily for 15 days, followed by a five-day post-ferment soak for enhanced color and structure. The wine matured for 12 months in French oak barriques (25% new) and was bottled unfiltered to maintain its character. Vintage 2024: The 2024 growing season in Lowburn combined dry warmth, early fruit set, and a long ripening period to produce expressive Pinot Noir. Strong flowering and average-to-above yields thrived under dry El Niño conditions, followed by a mostly rain-free summer with timely rainfall easing vine stress. Cool autumn nights slowed ripening, enhancing flavour concentration, acidity, and elegance. The resulting Pinot Noir features ripe cherry and bramble fruit, fine tannins, and a distinctive mineral texture. Tasting Note: The wine displays lifted aromas of wild cherry, redcurrant, dried thyme, rose petal, and subtle oak spice. On the palate, vibrant red fruit is framed by fine tannins, savoury notes, and earthy complexity from whole bunches. Cold soaking and extended maceration add colour depth and a silky texture, while 12 months in French oak provide structure and finesse.

Yellowbox Pinot Noir (Special good food pricing)
Region: South Australia Grape Variety: Pinot Noir Alcohol: 7% Summary: Yellowbox thoughtfully captures the Australian way of life. A little patch of sunshine reflecting the modern, warm, casual drinks and dining occasions. A hand-crafted range of wines from varieties best suited to display vibrant fruit flavours whilst being proudly lighter in alcohol. These are perfect for a glass on their own or will partner with many richer and lighter cuisines.
Winemaking: Harvested in the cool of the morning to avoid the warmer temperatures of the day. The fruit is quickly delivered to the winery for destemming and crushing prior to a regular fermentation in stainless steel tank. A small component of the blend is cool distilled whilst another undergoes gentle cool temperature / high pressure filtration process. The two parcels are then skilfully blended back to the original base wine to deliver freshness and vibrancy at only half the ABV of traditional wines.
Vintage 2023: The winter and spring prior to the 2023 vintage was generally a little wetter and cooler than what is usual, delaying the start of vintage and meaning some extra care was required through the growing period. Whilst the vintage was indeed later than usual, there were some really beautiful parcels of fruit that benefited from being grown in sites where the slower ripening simply enabled flavour ripeness to be achieved with character & balance.
Tasting Note: A light, vibrant crimson in the glass, the palate is lively with a core of supple red berry flavours accompanied by subtle spice notes. Soft and light mouthfeel, nice acidity, fine tannins and a moderate wine to enjoy with many dishes and occasions.
