Ata Rangi is renowned for their Pinot Noir which is consistently ranked as one of New Zealand's best. The 2019 Crimson has been highly rated by the critics…
93 points “A very attractive Crimson with bright red cherries and perfume as well as a sappy edge that adds further interest. Plenty of spice too. The palate has a very supple and elegant feel with a plush and fresh core of spicy red cherries and plums. Bright vibrant and gently creamy.” – James Suckling
Crimson reflects the intensity and elegant structure that draws so many to Martinborough’s wines. Its enticing nose is a medley of bright red fruits rose petal cranberry blood orange rosehip loganberry sandalwood cinnamon Earl Grey tea and a note of spicy red liquorice. The palate is divinely silky with tannins that are velvety and long. Already this vegan-friendly wine shows great balance and seductiveness.
