Winemaker Matt Dicey has fashioned a rich and supple Pinot, with expansive black-cherry aromas and flavors that deepen with time in the glass. French oak provides a subtle framework and adds layers of spice and chocolate.

Mt. Difficulty winemaker Matt Dicey has made another fine Otago Riesling, this from a single vineyard whose name is Gaelic for "Hill of Gold." It smells of honey and marmalade, with strong citrus overtones and a sweet attack. Zesty acids on the long, crisp finish provide balance.

Herbal and minty upfront, but then some pleasant cherry flavors take over. Turns a bit hard and drying on the finish. Imported by Hatherell Selections.
