What is in this wine, and where it grows
The wine
Felton Road MacMuir Pinot Noir, Central Otago 2024 Wine (75cl) is recorded as a 2024 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 MacMuir Vineyard as named-vineyard with high confidence. The vineyard record lists Pinot Noir.
Soil structure and vine density
Source-recorded ground: Bannockburn-series deep silt loams, with lake-bed clays, quartz sands, quartz and schist gravels, surface loess and calcium carbonate at depth. Geology: Fine tertiary lake-bed sediments with quartz and schist alluvium.
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.
Vine planting density: 4,667 vines/ha.. This describes vine spacing, not soil density.
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.
Evidence-linked vineyard record
Felton Road estate context
Four estate vineyards in Bannockburn, Central Otago, planted mainly to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling on low-fertility, free-draining soils.

Source-supplied bottle description
Retained as supporting identification copy; the structured facts and evidence links above are kept separate.
A little closed initially, it opens revealing great depth and plenty of power, a hallmark of this site. Dark fruit with hints of red, spices, present but rounded tannins and a long, complex finish.
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
