“Central Otago是我成長的地方，我流著她的血。她令我追逐一切不可能 ─ 創造出最完美的Pinot Noir。”---Alan Peters Oswald，Nanny Goat釀酒師說。Nanny Goat葡萄園的名字，來自Central Otago山區漫山遍野的野山羊。
酒莊對於釀酒的決心，就如Central Otago地區的山羊一樣，面對崎嶇的地勢，以及嚴苛的氣候，仍然能站穩腳步，在困難中釀出優質葡萄酒。
自2005年，酒莊釀造出首支Pinot Noir開始，Nanny Goat葡萄園一直致力於釀造出優雅，集中而平衡的美酒，同時讓每一籃葡萄都得以訴說自己的故事。釀酒師Alan Peters Oswald是大洋洲地區十大傑出年輕釀酒師之一，亦是當中唯一一位來自紐西蘭。

品酒筆記：
(Cameron Douglas MS's rating: 95 points)
毫無疑問，是礦物與純淨的果香，加上白堊土的香氣、成熟的梨子和白桃香，然後是法國橡木桶淡淡的甜香。質感絲滑，點點火藥和白色水果的味道。淡淡的鹹感伴隨着恰到好處的酸度，餘韻悠長、複雜、美味。
"Central Otago is where I was raised, it's in my blood. It inspires me to pursue the impossible. the creation of the perfect Pinot"---Alan Peters Oswald, the winemaker of Nanny Goat.
Nanny Goat Vineyard is named after the wild goats that roam the mountainous terrain of the Central Otago. It seemed to be a fair reflection of the determination to succeed, adapt and thrive in the rugged and often extreme climates of Central Otago – much like the nimble and sure footed wild goats of the region have done.
From the inception and the inaugural release of Pinot Noir in 2005, Nanny Goat Vineyard has strived to produce wines with elegance, concentration and balance while allowing each individual parcel of fruit to tell its own unique story. Winemaker Alan Peters Oswald – one of the top 10 young winemakers of the year from Australasia and the only winemaker from NZ.

Winemaking
Hand picked and whole bunch pressed to stainless steel tank for a brief period of settling before being gently mixed and transferred to 500L French oak Puncheon (20% new) with high solids and left to ferment naturally with occasional lees stirring to enhance palate weight and texture. The wine underwent full Malolactic fermentation in barrel during its 10 months of maturation.
Tasting Note:
(Cameron Douglas MS's rating: 95 points)
There’s no mistaking the mineral and pure fruit lift in the bouquet with a fine chalk-like scent of soil with ripe pear and white peach then light sweet scents of French Oak. Silky smooth on the palate with a light gun-flint and lees quality, flavours of white fleshed orchard fruits, a light saline quality sits perfectly alongside the acid-line. Lengthy, complex and delicious.
