The Mt Difficulty Roaring Meg Central Otago Pinot Noir 2024 is a vibrant, cool-climate Pinot Noir that beautifully captures the purity, concentration and elegance of New Zealand's renowned Central Otago region. Produced by the multi-award-winning Mt Difficulty winery, this vegan-friendly release benefits from an exceptional 2024 growing season, where warm, dry conditions and naturally small berries delivered remarkable flavour intensity, balance and freshness.

The bouquet opens with lifted aromas of fresh strawberry, ripe cherry and subtle spice, complemented by delicate hints of smoke and fine oak. The palate is plush yet elegant, revealing layers of red berries, plum and luscious Lapin cherry supported by silky tannins and beautifully integrated French oak. Bright natural acidity provides freshness and precision, leading to a long, balanced finish that showcases the hallmark finesse of Central Otago.

Highly regarded by critics, the 2024 vintage has been awarded 93 Points by James Suckling and 93 Points at the New Zealand International Wine Show, reinforcing Mt Difficulty's reputation as one of New Zealand's leading Pinot Noir producers.

A perfect companion to duck, roast pork, grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, herb-roasted chicken or soft-ripened cheeses, this elegant Pinot Noir is drinking beautifully now and will continue to evolve gracefully over the coming years.
