Lele Waipara Pinot Noir
Country: New Zealand
Region: Canterbury
Grapes: Pinot Noir
Vintage: 2020
Lele is the project of Liam Kelleher, one of the original founders of pioneering London natural wine shops/bars Noble Fine Liquor, P. Franco and Bright, who returned to NZ in 2019 to start making wine near his hometown of Christchurch in the South Island. As you would expect from a natural wine pioneer, viticulture is organic and winemaking low intervention, with just a touch of sulphur at bottling.
Elegant and beautifully balanced New Zealand Pinot Noir from Waipara in Canterbury. Vivid, perfumed aromas of red berries, bergamot and exotic spices. Delicate and fresh on the palate with a silky mouthfeel.
