Akitu Pinot Noir Blanc 2019 Wine NZ 75cl

Akitu Pinot Noir Blanc 2019 is a truly unique and individual wine that is somewhere between a white and a rosé due to the unusual use of 100% Pinot Noir grapes. The perfect summer wine with a beautifully floral perfume, white peach and crisp apple notes but also a spicy, yeasty flavour that adds to the outstanding texture on the palate. The grapes are pressed when cold to ensure the minimal colour is picked up from the skins before this wine is then left on fine lees to ferment for 5 months, creating excellent palate structure and texture. 

"I've never lept on a wine so fast! Delicate aromas of Pacific Rose apple, fennel, white pepper and cherry blossom osmose across the palate with flirty-fresh acidity and taut, tantalising textures." - Yvonne Lorkin
