Its Origins
Carrick is an integrated organic vineyard, winery, restaurant and cellar door in Bannockburn Central Otago. Known for their quality premium Pinot Noir, Carrick also grows and makes Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc; wines noted for their fruit expression and clarity. Steve Green, the owner-manager of Carrick, the viticulturist, the winemaker and the chef brings understanding and experience to making fine wine and food. This pride is reflected in the care of the vineyard and environment – Carrick has a flock of free range hens, giant compost heaps and a community garden, all part of the Carrick philosophy.
What The Critics Say
94/100 Bob Campbell MW
"Appealing perfume with a savoury edge and more conventional plum, dark cherry and spicy varietal flavours. Accessible wine with moderate cellaring potential. Good food wine. 15 MAR 2023." Drink 2023 - 2029
93/100 Cameron Douglas MS
"A complete wine on the nose and palate with aromas and flavours of red berries and savoury spices, a sense of place and texture from fruit and wood. A dry wine with flavours of red apple skin and cherry flesh, thyme and savoury spices, some wild flowers and forest berries. There’s a tautness on the palate showcasing the wine youthful and impact from tannins and acidity - both adding mouthfeel and structure. Well made with plenty of development time ahead. Best drinking from 2024 through 2029+."
