Kono Pinot Noir South Island New Zealand 2022
Vintage Character
Kono Pinot Noir 2022 from New Zealand’s South Island is a regional Pinot Noir that draws on the cool-climate conditions of the country’s northern South Island, with Nelson named as the core sub-region in this bottling. The 2022 vintage in New Zealand delivered a generous, healthy crop after generally favourable growing conditions, giving wines with open fruit, good balance and strong everyday appeal. Nelson’s maritime influence, long sunshine hours and moderating coastal breezes help Pinot Noir retain freshness while developing supple red-fruit character, making this origin especially attractive for vibrant, approachable expressions of the grape.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it offers lifted aromas of cherry, red plum and wild strawberry, backed by violet, gentle spice and a faint earthy note. The palate is medium-bodied and silky, with juicy acidity, fine-grained tannins and a clean, polished finish that keeps the wine energetic rather than heavy. This is an easy wine to enjoy at the table, pairing especially well with roast duck, mushroom risotto or soy-glazed salmon.
Winery Background
Kono is part of Wakatū Incorporation, a Māori-owned, whānau-based business from the top of the South Island whose winegrowing is guided by kaitiakitanga, the principle of guardianship over land and resources for future generations. That long-view philosophy underpins the estate’s strong sustainability focus and its aim to express place with clarity rather than excess manipulation. In the cellar, the style centres on pure fruit, gentle handling and measured oak influence, resulting in a Pinot Noir that is accessible, culturally distinctive and a compelling introduction to modern Māori winegrowing.
