The 2019 Ata Rangi McCrone Block Pinot Noir is a powerful yet finely detailed single-vineyard expression from Martinborough, showcasing depth, structure, and exceptional ageing potential. Produced by the renowned Ata Rangi, McCrone Block is one of the estate’s most revered sites, known for delivering Pinot Noir of concentration, savoury complexity, and long-term cellaring ability.
The McCrone Block vineyard is planted on free-draining, stony soils that naturally limit vine vigour and yield small, intensely flavoured berries. The 2019 vintage provided outstanding growing conditions, allowing full phenolic ripeness while retaining freshness and precision—ideal for a site of this calibre.
In the winery, grapes were hand-harvested and fermented using traditional methods, with careful extraction to build structure without sacrificing elegance. Maturation took place in French oak barrels over an extended period, with oak employed judiciously to enhance complexity and texture while preserving vineyard expression.
The wine opens with deep aromas of dark cherry, black raspberry, and plum, layered with notes of spice, dried herbs, forest floor, and subtle earthy nuance. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, dense yet poised, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, savoury finish that reflects both site and vintage strength.
Still youthful and tightly wound, the 2019 Ata Rangi McCrone Block Pinot Noir benefits from decanting if enjoyed now and will reward patient cellaring over 15–20+ years, developing additional layers of complexity and tertiary character.
A serious, site-driven Martinborough Pinot Noir and a centrepiece bottle for collectors seeking structure, depth, and proven longevity.
