Wooing Tree’s vineyard sits in the heart of New Zealand’s breathtaking Central Otago in the serene Cromwell, next to the tranquil lap of the smooth Lake Dunstan and under the watchful eye of nearby snow-tipped mountains. That fruit, which ripens under the relentless heat of Aotearoa’s unguarded sun, produces some of the most sought-after Pinot Noir in the Southern Hemisphere under the guidance and gentle touch of winemaker Peter Bartle. The Beetle Juice, which earned a gold medal at the New Zealand International Wine Show, calls to mind cinnamon-dusted dark fruit and blends exquisite softness with sublime elegance. A rare beauty worthy of the creature that adorns its label: the endangered Cromwell Chafer Beetle.
