Description

Mt Difficulty's single vineyard wines are site specific, intended to give a pure expression of the terroir they come from, to be a bottled essence of the vineyard itself.

From the Mansons Farm vineyard comes this elegant Pinot Noir, ready to fill your glass with dark berry fruits and hints of spice.

We might recognise New Zealand wines for their Sauvignon Blancs, but this wine goes to show why Central Otago is called home to some of the greatest new world Pinots.

96 Points - "A seductively soft and silken pinot noir, with initial fruit sweetness giving way to a pleasantly drying finish. Quite a floral, fragrant wine with hidden depths that bottle age promises to reveal." - Bob Campbell (The Real Review)

93 Points - "Serious perfume of dark cherries, cedary notes, clove, undergrowth – savouriness a big thing here. Fleshy-textured with rich fruit flavour but great freshness. Feels very ‘pedigree’ and well-groomed, loaded with fruit flavour, seasoned judiciously, drawn long on fine tannins. Serious pinot with some big impact." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

Mansons Farm Pinot Noir is hand crafted in very limited quantities. Earthy, savoury, sauvage raspberry notes dominate, with background violet floral notes. Floral notes lift the red berry characters, that introduce the wine. These flow into a more densely
sculptured mid-palate. The wine continues to build through the finish, and displays a lovely tension through persistent fine grained tannins acidity and spicy red berry fruit.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
