Masons Vineyard is grown in the Parkburn sub-region of Central Otago, known for its frost-free and north-facing slopes. This site is incredibly unique and a testament to the work of the ancient Central Otago glaciers.
Comprised mostly of the Able Clone from Pinot Noir parcels thriving on the steep north-facing "O" block, this site is renowned for its soil composition featuring a foundation of clay and paedogenic lime. Small amounts of Clone 777 & 667 from the same site are carefully added to enhance tannin structure and weight.

Description
Winemakers comments
Deep and complex aromas of black cherry unfold with roasted cacao, lapsang souchong and lifted cinnamon spice. The palate is dense and mouth filling, carrying impressive depth and poise, with layers of dark cherry fruit and savory complexity. The structural tannin and fresh acidity frame the palate and lead to a long, persistent finish with lingering spice and earthy notes.
