The 2024 Mt Difficulty Bannockburn Pinot Noir is a classic expression of Central Otago Pinot Noir, combining generous fruit, aromatic complexity and fine structure with the distinctive character of vineyards surrounding Bannockburn.

Mt Difficulty has been closely associated with Bannockburn since its establishment in the early 1990s and has become one of the region's benchmark producers. The area's dramatic continental climate, low rainfall and mineral-rich soils provide excellent conditions for Pinot Noir, producing wines that combine ripe fruit intensity with freshness, savoury complexity and impressive ageing potential.

The 2024 Bannockburn Pinot Noir is sourced from estate vineyards within the Bannockburn subregion. Careful vineyard selection and small-batch winemaking allow the wine to retain the individual character of its sites while delivering the consistency and depth associated with the Mt Difficulty style.

The nose is expressive and inviting, showing dark cherry, raspberry, plum and wild strawberry, complemented by violet, dried herbs and subtle spice. With air, more savoury characters emerge, including forest floor, tea leaf and gentle earthy notes.

On the palate, ripe cherry and dark berry flavours are balanced by fresh acidity and finely structured tannins. The wine has excellent concentration without excessive weight, with subtle savoury and spicy characters adding complexity. The texture is supple and polished, leading to a persistent finish of red and dark fruits, herbs and spice.

Approachable in its youth, the 2024 Bannockburn Pinot Noir should also reward medium-term cellaring as its primary fruit develops greater earthy, savoury and tertiary complexity.
