Pegasus Bay
Pegasus Bay Pinot Noir 2020, Waipara Valley, New Zealand - 1.5l
Hailing from the Waipara Valley of New Zealand, Pegasus Bay is a red to savour. Uncorking the magnum reveals an array of red fruit aromas, most notably cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate, balanced by a pinch of smoke and black pepper. Once it reaches the palate, Pegasus Bay blends this full and fruity taste sensation with a mild earthiness and acidic tannins that provide sufficient tang and a lengthy finish. An immaculate blend of sweet and sharp, Pegasus Bay is a warming, refreshing, and effortlessly moreish. It's the closest you'll come to a Burgundy from the southern hemisphere, while offering everything you'd expect from the sun-kissed climes of Australasia.

WHAT IT GOES WITH
Poultry and game, red meat, spicy Asian dishes, fruit, and strong cheese - this is a truly versatile red.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD
The Pegasus Bay wine project was founded by the Donaldson family in 1970, bringing the techniques and standards embraced by the Burgundy region of France to New Zealand. The pinot noir grapes used for this magnum are grown using organic techniques (The Donaldson's were, and remain, pioneers in the field of sustainable viticulture) on Canterbury's Teviotdale Range. Here, the grapes benefit from protection from the elements that would otherwise blow in from the ocean, while also benefiting from long, warm days, cool nights, and a lengthy, dry Autumn. Ageing for some 18 months ahead of bottling, Pegasus Bay will also provide a unique taste experience rarely associated with its territory of growth.

A wooden box can make your magnum look even more special, especially if you want to personalise it for a gift. We can engrave up to 50 characters, in one of five different fonts, to the front of the wooden box.
We always intend to despatch any orders on the same day, on a next day delivery service, assuming checkout is completed before 1pm as this gives us enough time to prepare the package.
You can also track your order throughout the process, ensuring that you’re home to accept it or make alternative arrangements with DPD.
If ordering as a gift, please provide the recipient’s address and a contact telephone number so they are notified a delivery is coming. While the arrival of a magnum will surely be a welcome surprise, we want to ensure somebody is available to sign for the package. We’ll keep you updated about the delivery progress, and supply a purchase invoice that doubles as a receipt for your financial records to your email address. We never include an invoice with the package in case it is a gift.
We rarely need to process returns, but in the improbable event that we need to do so, we will offer a full refund on any product returned in its original packaging and in a re-sellable condition. Unfortunately we cannot refund shipping costs.
