Collection: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir doesn't rely on weight or power. It's a grape built on perfume, freshness and detail, producing wines that reward a slower pace and another sniff of the glass. There's a reason so many winemakers and sommeliers become obsessed with it.

Pinot Noir is one of the world’s most celebrated and distinctive red grape varieties, prized for its elegance, perfume and ability to express terroir with remarkable clarity. Originally associated with Burgundy in eastern France, Pinot Noir is now grown across many of the world’s leading cool-climate wine regions, producing styles that range from light and vibrant to deeper, more structured and age-worthy expressions.

Compared with fuller-bodied red grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah, Pinot Noir tends to produce wines with softer tannins, brighter acidity and more delicate aromatics. Depending on region and winemaking style, flavours can range from cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry to forest floor, spice, herbs and earthy savoury complexity.

Our Pinot Noir range focuses on expressive growers producing wines with freshness, balance and regional identity, from classic Burgundy and Alpine Pinot Noir to cooler-climate New World styles from regions such as Oregon, New Zealand and Sonoma Coast. Alongside traditional producers, the collection also includes lower-intervention and organically farmed wines chosen for purity, texture and drinkability.

Expect bright red fruit, floral aromatics, subtle spice and silky texture alongside wines that pair naturally with food and evolve beautifully with age. Whether you're looking for lighter everyday Pinot Noir, structured fine wine or fresher low-intervention expressions, Pinot Noir remains one of the most versatile and rewarding red wine styles in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Pinot Noir taste like?

Pinot Noir is typically fresh and elegant, with flavours of cherry, raspberry, strawberry and subtle spice alongside earthy, floral or savoury notes depending on the region and style.

Is Pinot Noir light or full bodied?

Pinot Noir is usually considered a lighter to medium-bodied red wine with softer tannins and bright acidity compared with fuller-bodied reds like Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah.

What food pairs well with Pinot Noir?

Pinot Noir pairs especially well with roast chicken, duck, mushrooms, pork, charcuterie and softer cheeses thanks to its freshness and balanced structure.

Is Burgundy made from Pinot Noir?

Should Pinot Noir be served chilled?

Lightly chilling Pinot Noir for around 20–30 minutes before serving can help highlight freshness and aromatics, especially in lighter or low-intervention styles.
