Devotus Martinborough Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022 (750ml)

Brilliant garnet with a crimson edge, the 2022 Devotus Single Vineyard Pinot Noir from Martinborough opens with an aromatic weave of wild raspberry, dark cherry, rose petal, and thyme, layered with nuances of forest floor, black tea, and subtle oak spice. Grown on a tightly farmed, organically managed site on the Martinborough Terrace, the old vines are rooted in free-draining alluvial gravels, yielding intensely concentrated fruit of purity and structure. Hand-harvested and fermented with wild yeasts—partially whole bunch—the wine is aged in French oak barrels, around one-third new, for finesse and integration. The palate is supple yet energetic, with red and dark berry fruit interlaced with savoury undertones and a fine, mineral thread. Tannins are silken but persistent, and acidity is vibrant, driving a long, poised finish with echoes of spice, florals, and crushed stone.
