Urlar Gladstone Pinot Noir 2021/2022, crafted by Jodie Belsham in the cool, elevated Gladstone sub-region of Wairarapa, is a refined and expressive example of organic winemaking. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, and forest floor rise from the glass, followed by a silky palate of red plum, spice, and subtle oak. Fine-grained tannins and lively acidity provide balance and drive, while a savoury mineral thread adds depth and precision. Awarded 94 points by Sam Kim (Wine Orbit), this Pinot Noir is elegant, layered, and beautifully structured – a pure expression of Gladstone’s terroir and the finesse of thoughtful craftsmanship.
