Producer Notes
One of the leading producers of Pinot Noir in New Zealand, the Felton Road estate is located in Bannockburn, Central Otago on New Zealand’s South Island. The area is well-known for its cooler climate but benefits from dry, sunny days that allows for even ripening of fruit.
Felton Road have a large portfolio that includes the famous Block series of top-performing Pinot Noir and a top-class Riesling, as well as a number of easy drinking Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. As the reputation of Felton Road has increased so have the prices and they offer a little less value than they perhaps used to, especially for simpler wines such as Cornish Point.
