Dry River Pinot Noir Pinot Noir 2022 (6x

  1. Dry River Pinot Noir Pinot Noir 2022 (6x 750mL).

Wine Summary Image

Named for one of South Wairarapa’s earliest sheep stations, Dry River rests on the very arid, gravelly, free-draining soils near the Ruamahanga River, an area known as the Martinborough Terrace. Dry River was founded in 1979 by Dr Neil and Dawn McCallum and was one of Martinborough’s first wineries. The McCallums’ dream was to produce unique, high-quality wines that age beautifully. It’s been our mission ever since. All wines are estate-grown over approximately 12ha on the Dry River Estate, Craighall and Lovat Vineyards.

Expert Reviews

Very pretty - will age slowly and elegantly...

94 Points

The 2022 Pinot Noir leads with coffee grounds, black cherry, satsuma plum skin, Szechuan peppercorn, pink peppercorns, a hint of raspberry leaf tea and graphite. The wine smells savoury while delivering all of these things. In the mouth, it is fine-boned but persistent and behaves in a gentle, splayed sort of manner throughout the finish. It’s a very pretty wine, one that is quiet now, but I feel it will age slowly and elegantly in the cellar. This is a wine to drink now and to perhaps misunderstand in doing so. Or it’s a wine to be patient with and reap the benefits after five or so years and beyond. I love the wine here, today, but I’d be cautious to recommend drinking your bottles too early – consider from 2027. 13% alcohol, sealed under Diam. 2022 was a transition vintage. Wilco Lam left in October 2022 just prior to the sale of the business, and so the wines were in barrel and mostly fermented but unfinished. The wines were then finished by winemaker Ben McNab in the same manner they would have been had Wilco still been there.

Winery Tasting Notes

The 2022 Pinot Noir is a sensory journey through the season. It presents a vibrant red-toned perfume with a delicate dance of Mirabelle plum, allspice, subtle oak, lichen, and green moss notes. The nose elegantly balances the liveliness of fruit with the complexity derived from our vineyards. As it caresses the palate, this wine exudes robustness, upheld by a backbone of bright acidity. Its remarkable structure promises an evolution of richness and weight. Whether enjoyed now or patiently cellared for the next decade, this Pinot Noir unveils an exquisite tapestry of aromatics and textures, inviting you to savour each sip.
