Just the second ever bottling of this extremely limited single vineyard bottling of Pinot Noir from the iconic Felton Road.

Pinot Noir in its most pure form. Outstanding fruit concentration is immediately apparent. A very tight-knit wine in all facets, reflecting the passion and respect that Gary Farr has for this noble grape variety. Knife edge precision, ethereal flavours and a gracious, balanced finish. Bravo.

20% whole bunch clusters, fermented and matured in a tulip shaped concrete vessel and French oak puncheons.

The second label of Caledonia Australis, this is bright ruby in colour with great clarity. Classic Pinot hallmarks of raspberry and plum with subtle oak and lingering flavours supported by fine tannins. An excellent Pinot at a great price!

Product Description: A bold step into still wine from a house defined by sparkling. Mumm Central Otago Pinot Noir 2022 is part of the Terroir Collection, created by G.H. Mumm in collaboration with Pernod Ricard Winemakers. It is the house’s first still release from New Zealand, sourced exclusively from the Lowburn sub-region of Central Otago, where schist and gravel soils meet sharp diurnal shifts to yield Pinot Noir of intensity and clarity. Hand-harvested fruit and precise winemaking—including 16 months in French oak with 50% new barrels—give this wine both muscular depth and polish. With its rich fruit, savoury layers, and fine tannins, it channels Central Otago’s bold character while remaining refined and ageworthy. Tasting Notes NOSE – Dark and spiced Black cherry, blackberry, and plum layered with savoury undergrowth, baking spice, and hints of vanilla and mulled orange. PALATE – Rich and textured Plush dark fruits carried by fine, silky tannins, with oak spice adding structure and depth. FINISH – Long and polished Lingering, textured, with intensity balanced by regional freshness.

As often happens with Calvert, the nose when young is slightly muted and more direct than exotic; pure and fine aromas, not bold and lush. The palate follows on accordingly, with clarity of fruit, roses and florals. Focussed, concentrated yet pure in the mid-palate, with its hallmark mineral texture, its firm but ultimately juicy on the finish. The vines are growing up and were seeing the puppy-fat turn to muscle.
