Delta Estate Hatters Hill Pinot Noir 2021

Bright ruby in colour, this Pinot Noir opens with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, layered with hints of violet, spice, and subtle oak toast. The palate is supple and elegant, showing juicy red berry fruit wrapped in fine tannins and balanced by lively acidity. Notes of forest floor, clove, and a touch of savoury earthiness add depth, while the finish is long, silky, and refined.

Delta Estate was founded in 2000 in Marlborough’s Waihopai Valley, with Hatters Hill representing its flagship Pinot Noir. The name comes from the estate’s elevated vineyard site, where cooler nights and low-yielding vines encourage slow ripening and concentration. Combining careful vineyard management with gentle winemaking, Hatters Hill Pinot Noir is crafted to showcase both the purity of Marlborough fruit and the elegance and structure associated with New Zealand’s top Pinot Noir sites.
