Ata Rangi Crimson Pinot Noir 2022

Ata Rangi Crimson offers an alluring bouquet that captivates from the first sip. The nose is a harmonious blend of dark cherry, new season raspberry, and wild mulberries, creating a fragrance that is both inviting and complex. As you explore further, subtle hints of smoky clove and exotic spices emerge, adding depth to the aromatic experience.

On the palate, this Pinot Noir reveals rich flavors of sweet red plum and black cherry, bursting with vibrancy. The texture is smooth, with very fine, supple tannins that glide effortlessly across the palate, leading to a lingering, elegant finish. Despite its charm, Crimson possesses an underlying structure that carries significant weight and power, making it a wine of both finesse and strength.

Winemaker’s Notes
Ata Rangi's Crimson is a tribute to the delicate yet resilient nature of Pinot Noir. Crafted with precision and care, this wine embodies the essence of the Martinborough terroir, where the cool climate and unique soil composition contribute to the wine's distinctive character. The 2022 vintage is particularly notable for its balance and complexity, a result of a growing season that provided ideal conditions for the grapes to develop their full potential.

Pairing Suggestions
Crimson is a versatile companion at the dining table. It pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, from roasted duck and grilled lamb to earthy mushroom risotto and herb-crusted salmon. The wine’s vibrant fruit flavors and silky tannins complement both rich, savory meals and lighter fare, making it a perfect choice for any occasion.

Why We Love It
This wine is utterly charming, offering an approachable yet sophisticated drinking experience. Its balance of fruit, spice, and structure makes it a standout Pinot Noir that is equally enjoyable now or after a few years of careful cellaring.
