Pinot Noir
Elegant sensuous and intimate Pinot Noir and Rosé from Judge Rock

A romance not a blockbuster, feminine not masculine, balance not power, family not corporate, and love not lust.

Paul and Angela Jacobson (nee Chiaroni)'s vineyard is situated on a sloping alluvial fan at Hillview Road below the airport plateau on the outskirts of Alexandra, Central Otago, New Zealand. The soil consists of 27m depth of fine schist and greywacke river sands. The vineyard is sheltered from the north western and southern winds.

The Chiaroni family was started in New Zealand by Ambrogio(Ambrose) Chiaroni, from Germasino, (prononced Jer-maa-zi-no) near Dongo and Lake Como, Northern Italy. He was Angela's great great uncle and he established an art and stone importation and retail business at 24 George Street in Dunedin. Later Mansueto and Ambrigio (junior) his nephew and Angela's Grandfather came out in the 1890s and they settled in Invercargill and Dunedin respectively and ran art businesses there.

Judge Rock Pinot Noir 2007
Joelle Thompson Mind Food Magazine 12 December 2008
Another gold medal winner at this year’s Air New Zealand Wine Awards, this Central Otago Pinot Noir is a clear stand out. Juicy fruit flavours couple with spicy aromas and a long finish.
Elite Gold Medal Air New Zealand Awards 2008

Tasting notes
Dark cherry, chocolate and spice introduce the aromatic sensation. Complex, silky and bustling with great fruit weight and savoury nuances, this wine will please plenty of Pinot fans. Its, sumptuous and lasting with flavour and ready for your immediate consumption with loads of repeat visits through to 2011-12.

Comment The 2007 was a small vintage with only 300 cases. The bunch weights were 40 grams with very small berries.

You be the Judge!
