Gibbston Valley China Terrace Pinot Noir 2024
The China Terrace Pinot Noir comes from a high altitude Bendigo site that balances daytime warmth with nocturnal cool. This and the fine sand, loess and schist based soil, gives clean, pristine fruit of great quality. The resulting wine tends to have a red fruited nature, complex and sweet fruited,with a savoury tannin profile.
As one of the region’s founding wineries, Gibbston Valley's focus has always been handcrafting premium wines. Honouring these traditions have made them a world-renowned destination, since releasing Central Otago's first commercial vintage in 1987.
No one thought grapes could flourish at 45 degrees south of the equator. But wine pioneer, Alan Brady, took a chance on the unknown and planted the region’s first vines in 1983. With organic certification, they create unique and pure reflections of ruggedly-beautiful and incredibly diverse surroundings. They are inspired by the pursuit of good wine, good food and what they like to call good living.
