Youthful aromatic expressions of sweet red cherries, mulberries and plums lead to a complex and lingering palate. The oak is light and subtle to complement the fine grained tannins and supple acidity.

"The assumption that Pinot Noir from Central Otago is muscular, dense and chunky, is outdated and irrelevant. The region has moved toward more sensitive tannin management and extraction, making for seamless, pliable wines. These are fine wines, imbued with fresh acidity thanks to the climate, and they express with eloquence and grace the schist/limestone/clay soils the vines are grown in. The best wines project the region deservedly onto the world stage." Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate

The Last Chance is a beautifully sited two-hectare terrace perched in bright clear air above the Earnscleugh Valley, carefully planted with well-tended Burgundian clone pinot noir. It nestles amongst a small cluster of the World's most southerly vineyards and takes its name from the watercourse that runs through its heart, hand dug by gold miners in the 1860s, The Last Chance. Soils are raw schist gravels that are low in fertility and require careful nurturing.

"Bright garnet hue with aromas of plum, mulled spices, rosemary, peppercorn, and graphite. The intense perfume flows onto the palate with more baking spices, dried florals, cedar, and dark red fruit. This vintage of Gibbston Pinot Noir is harmonious and inviting with a suppleness that lends great drinkability at a young age. The extremely small harvest from this site makes the wine a real treasure! Drink now until 2030." - Jen Parr, August 2022
