The 2022 vintage of this powerful, all conquering release from McArthur Ridge was awarded the most prestigious award - Best in Show Pinot Noir at the Decanter World Wine Awards 2024, effectively making it the World's Best Pinot Noir. The following 2023 vintage also cleaned up at the award shows - scoring a whopping 4x Trophy Wins and multiple Gold Medals! We fully expect this amazing new 2024 release to soon follow suit.
McArthur Ridge Southern Tor is a standout example of fulsome, rounded Central Otago Pinot. Bright ruby / purple in the glass, the palate is full of black cherries, smoky oak and gamey characters. Already delicious but there are years of cellaring ahead. Another top effort from Champion Winemaker Matt Connell, and one sip will make it clear why this special wine has picked up so many trophies over the years. Very highly recommended.
Tasting note:
Decanter judges (2022 vintage): "We may not have found any Burgundian Pinot Noir wines to feature in this year’s Best In Show selection, but three Pinots from the Southern Hemisphere goes some way to compensate. This example from the Alexandra Basin sub-region shows why there is so much excitement about Central Otago. It’s a translucent dark red in colour, with articulate aromas of warm red berries, red cherries and root spice. It’s softly articulated on the palate and sweet-fruited, with great grace and poise. The wine’s structure comes more prominently from its acidity than from its relatively discreet tannin profile. In just two years, it has already begun to soften and open; look out for stones and a herbal complexity as well as root spice on the finish."
