Dog Point went fully organic across its Marlborough vineyards back in 2009, and the farming reads like a closed loop. 2,000 sheep grazing and fertilizing through winter, steer on the property, prunings composted and returned to the rows. The 2019 pours deep ruby, with dark plum, baking spice and violet lifting out of the glass, then a lush, pure mid-palate of dark berry framed by fine-grained French oak and velvety tannin. That long spiced finish is what a decade and a half of farming this way buys you.

Tasting Notes

Deep ruby. Aromas of dark plum, baking spice and violet rise from the glass. The palate is lush and pure, dark berries and plum framed by fine-grained French oak, with velvety tannins and a long, spiced finish.

Professional Ratings

93 Wine Advocate

The 2022 Pinot Noir leads with black cherry and star anise, strawberry top and a hint of pomegranate molasses. The wine is light and chalky, with attractive clarity in the glass and brilliant length through the finish. There is a dusting of cocoa and licorice at the edges of the aromas. It's a beautiful wine, one that ages slowly and gracefully over the decades. The tannins here are grippy and yet

91 Vinous

The 2022 Pinot Noir feels indulgent with rich flavors, creamy textures and good length. This is well balanced with layers of ripe fruit and well-integrated festive spices. Black and red cherry, plum and dark chocolate develop on the finish.
