Steve Smith MW is one of NZ’s most accomplished wine minds. The country’s only MW with a viticulture background – having started at Villa Maria, co-founded Craggy Range, and today leading AONZ Wines, home to Smith & Sheth, Pyramid Valley & Lowburn Ferry.

This exciting partnership is the natural evolution of our 14-year Chardonnay Collaboration with Tim Turvey of Clearview. Working closely with Steve and his talented winemakers, we tasted through a range of exceptional Lowburn vineyard cuvées to co-blend a Pinot Noir that captures the essence of the magnificent 2024 Central Otago vintage.

Our 95/100 Tasting Panel Review...Intense aromas of dark cherry, exotic spice, fragrant mountain thyme, and a beguiling hint of wood smoke. Elegant and very silky on the palate, it showcases the evolution of Central Otago Pinot Noir away from the fruit bomb style… into more complex and balanced wine. The finish is seamless and long, with subtly charry French oak complementing the vibrant dark berry and cherry fruit. Abundant drinkability, each glass is better than the last. Gorgeous Central Otago Pinot Noir to enjoy with venison, duck, light game meats, or simply to drink and enjoy, between now and 2032.

A long time in the planning & Making... our NEW Collaboration with Steve Smith MW of AONZ Wines is a "Dream Collaboration" that will mirror the Amazing 14-year Collaboration we have all loved with Tim Turvey of Clearview Wines. Grab one of the 100 only 13-bottle cases at $299.88 and savour 2024 Collaboration Central Otago Pinot Noir for just $23.07 bottle.
