The second most widely planted grape variety in New Zealand, pinot noir captures and reproduces the intensity from the terroirs of Bannockburn. This wine region now finds itself on the world map of wines thanks to its exceptional pinot noir, on a par with Burgundy and Oregon, the two regions traditionally synonymous with this grape variety.
“The Siren”, Akarua’ssuper premium cuvee, leaves in its wake a mesmerisingand ambitious Pinot Noir. It is composed of the finest parcels from CairnmuirRoad in Bannockburn, where grapevines flourish beautifully in a very windy, very hot and very dry environment. The odyssey of a full-bodied and complex wine, both floral and spicy with enchanting black-berry aromas.
