Kim Crawford Pinot Noir 2009

About the winery

The winemaking philosophy at Kim Crawford Wines is quite uncluttered, just like the winemaker, who sees himself as the "Guardian of the Vineyard", transferring, guiding and maximising the flavour from the vineyard to the bottle through the winemaking process.


The aim has always been straightforward: to make wine that is accessible, varietally expressive, fruit driven and generous. Viticulture takes a very prominent place as the defining moment in winemaking, the moment when the grape is picked.

Professionals’ opinions

Wine.com Red Wine by Kim Crawford from Marlborough, New Zealand. The appearance is bright red with purple and crimson hues. The aromas are enticing, with notes of dark cherries and strawberries with well integrated oak complexity. On the palate, the flavor is vibrant, rich fruit flavors underscored by nuances of sweet, smoky oak with firm tannins that give the wine excellent length and weight.
