Maude Mohawk Hill Pinot Noir 2017

$45.00 per bottle

The name given to our Lowburn Vineyard in Cromwell as when you stand amidst the vines and look out across Lake Dunstan the hill you look directly upon was once aptly named Mohawk Hill by the workers who came to Central Otago to build the Clyde Dam.  Planted in 2008 / 220 m elevation. Clone 667 / 36% whole cluster / 23 days maceration – without doubt the largest and most luscious of the 4 single vineyard Pinot Noirs, ripe cherry and plum aromas – rich, round and cuddly, a definite a crowd favourite.

Maude Pinot Noir 2018

$38.00 per bottle

Notes: The 2018 Maude is sourced from Central Otago’s premium sub regions, each contributing to this savoury, complex Pinot Noir. Aromas of dark cherry, plum and dried herbs team up with a palate that displays layers of dark fruit flavours entwined with velvety but structural tannins. Careful cellaring for 5 years will reward.

Maude Poison Creek Pinot Noir 2017

$45.00 per bottle

From the Poison Creek Vineyard in Queensberry / 280m elevation / planted in 2003.  The name refers to the pure mountain stream that provides the water vital to the growth of this vineyard planted on an ancient and very free draining river terrace.  Clone 5 / 36% whole cluster / 23 days maceration – perhaps the most refined of the 4 single vineyard Pinot Noirs, inky, blackcurrant vine and violet aromas – a sinewy and structural frame with remarkable line and length.

Maude, Mt Maude EMW Pinot Noir 2018

$45.00 per bottle

A celebration of two blocks of mature Pinot Noir from the Mt Maude Vineyard.  As the name suggests the blocks face opposite directions.  Made in a different style - 100% whole cluster, clone 10-5, often only one pigaege during the ferment, definitely a unique winemaking twist on Pinot Production.  Paler, intense perfume and interest on the nose yet full, luscious and complex.  Love it or hate it this Pinot certainly creates some debate.

Maude, Mt Maude Kids Block Pinot Noir 2017

$45.00 per bottle

Another Single Vineyard Pinot from the Mt Maude pedigree.  Six rows of Dijon Pinot Noir clones were planted in 2000 and dedicated to Dawn and Terry’s grandchildren.  Now, not unlike the grandchildren themselves, they’re reaching a level of maturity and personalities are starting to emerge.  We enjoy harnessing those personalities into a Pinot Noir respectful of the Mt Maude name, albeit defined by a vibrance and vitality that leaps out of the glass at you.

Maude, Mt Maude Vineyard, Dry Riesling 2019

Maude, Mt Maude Vineyard, East Block Riesling 2019
