Corofin Cowley Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016/17 Hawkes Bay Pinot Gris This new Icon joins VillaWe feel privileged to be one of a handful of wineries working with fruit from the intriguing and meticulously managed Cowley Family Vineyard. For us, the Main Slopes Pinot clearly articulates its origins with wildly perfumed aromatics and a dense core of ripe black fruit. Lifted aromas of violets and crushed herbs lead to volume and saturated flavour on the palate, all framed by ripe meandering tannins.
