Vineyard and growing context
The wine
Felton Road Cornish Point Pinot Noir, Central Otago 2023 Wine (75cl) is recorded as a 2023 other wine made from Pinot Noir in Central Otago, New Zealand.
Typical grape profile: Pinot Noir — Red fruit (cherry, cranberry, red plum), earthy and floral notes, silky texture. The finished bottle can differ with vintage and winemaking.
The vineyard evidence
The evidence link identifies Cornish Point Vineyard as named-vineyard with high confidence. The vineyard record lists Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Soil and vine spacing
Recorded soil: Manuherikia-series moderately deep fine sandy loams: wind-blown loess over terrace gravels and older silts, with clay and calcium carbonate at depth. Geology: Post-glacial river terrace gravels and silts with loess topsoil.
The description contains both coarse and finer material, so drainage and water storage may change between layers or blocks rather than behaving as one uniform soil.
Planting density: 4,040 vines/ha; 2.2m rows and 1.13m vine spacing.. This describes how closely the vines are spaced.
A soil name is not a bulk-density measurement. BottlePicker only shows soil bulk density where a laboratory or modelled value exists. Texture interpretation follows USDA NRCS soil-water guidance.
Growing-temperature context
Pinot Noir: Cool-climate example; typically 1,800–2,500 growing degree days on the °F scale, equivalent to about 1,000–1,390 °C-days accumulated above a 10°C base.
Heat bands use Oregon State University Extension. The OIV climate method treats growing-season temperature as accumulated heat above 10°C, not a fixed daily target.

The description below is the retailer’s own wording.
Plenty of lively fruit character but with an exotic spice note. More savoury on the palate, with the mouthfilling fruit supported by notes of cedar. well integrated tannins and great balance.
