Wines and the winemakers in the New World embody the entrepreneurial spirit you would expect from descendants of immigrants that struck out searching for a new and better life in another place. In these regions the winemaking practices vary dramatically, and there is much experimentation. The New World generally places less emphasis on making wine the same way it has been made for centuries, and more emphasis on making wine that takes advantage of modern advances.
Enjoy these wines from the New World's regions: South Africa in Africa, New Zealand in Australasia, and Chile in South America!

Moko Black Pinot Noir x 1
This Pinot Noir reveals lifted red fruit on the nose, a suggestion of chocolate on the palate and cool climate elegance throughout. The winery exploits this coastal fruit by capturing a breezy finesse over the classic cranberry and red current aromas, resulting in wine with enough bite and texture to be foody but with enough generosity of fruit to be a delicious glass on its own.
