Winemaker Notes
Domaine Rewa is a tiny 5.5 hectare vineyard located on the fluvial terrace nestled in the foothills of the Pisa Range. Although the property was planted in 1997, 2011 was Domaine Rewa’s first vintage. Production is 10k bottles per year. Wanting to make the most of this special plot of land, Philippa Shepherd works with Grant Rolston, Gary Ford and winemaker Pete Bartle to pursue her dream of producing refined wines inspired by the elegance of Burgundy. To ensure the Domaine remains the best possible custodian of the land, biodynamic land practices are deployed - the result is pure and perfumed wines expressive of the Central Otago terroir, renowned as one of the finest in NZ.
Reviews
Raymond Chan 18.5/20 (2015 Vintage)
Dark ruby-red colour with some depth, lighter on the rim with slight purple hues. The nose id ethereal and voluminous with a deep core of ripe dark-red cherry fruit entwined with subtle notes of dark herbs, unfolding red florals and a little nutty oak. Medium-bodied, the palate has rich and sweetly ripe fruit flavours of dark-red and black cherries melded with some liquorice, spices and nutty oak detail. The flavours are softly mouthfilling and the fruit is supported by fine-grained tannin extraction lending texture and refined grip. The acidity is integrated and the wine carries along a velvety line to a lingering finish. This is a beautifully balanced, sweetly rich dark-red and black cherry fruited Pinot Noir with subtle herb, liquorice and spice notes on a fine-textured palate. Match with roast duck, pork, beef and lamb dishes over the next 5-6 years. Pinot Noir fruit, clones 5 and 113, hand-picked and indigenous yeast fermented to 12.6% alc., the wine aged 12 months in 28% bew French oak barriques. 18.5/20 Feb 2018
