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。

花香芬芳，紅玫瑰的香氣帶來繽紛的果香，包括車厘子和莓果的味道，以及微妙的新鮮香草味。細膩、成熟的單寧作為骨架，令葡萄酒充滿活力，並具備陳年潛質。
"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
Fruit for this wine was carefully Hand picked & destemmed. Part of the fruit underwent a period of carbonic maceration prior to being foot stomped - the final blend contains 15% Whole Bunch. After fermentation and a brief period of settling the wine was racked to 225L French oak barriques (30% new) where it underwent natural MLF and matured for 10 months before bottling.
Tasting Note:
(Bob Campbell's rating: 94 points)
Fragrant, floral aroma with the scent of red rose leads to a more fruitforward palate with dark cherry/berry characters with subtle fresh herb flavours. A backbone of fine, ripe tannins gives energy and suggests cellaring potential.
