Delta Estate Hatters Hill Pinot Noir 2012

The Delta Wine Company was founded in 2000 by three wine industry gurus and good mates, who had spent evenings enjoying wine and discussing the potential for exceptional and unique Pinot Noir in Marlborough. 

The Delta Farm, on the south side of Marlborough's Wairau Valley, was first established in 1848 by Constantine Dillon. It is situated to the west of Blen-heim at the mouth of the Waihopai Valley. The Farm's low vigour clay soils, rather than the high vigour 'Sauvignon Blanc' loam soils closer to the Wairau River, were identified as perfect for Pinot Noir. The site was planted using the best of the Dijon clones in 2002 and 2003.

Delta Estate Hatters Hill Pinot Noir 2012 vintage is a deep, ruby red colour. The nose is concentrated and rich with fragrant aromas of ripe plums and dark berries. This wine has a complex palate with smoky hints from French Oak.
