Delightfully approachable, yet complex, this supple rich Marlborough Pinot Noir exudes sweet cherry and lavender aromas, with vibrant boysenberry fruit flavours, beautifully complemented with spicy liquorice and earthy notes. Subtle oak and velvety refined tannins.
The grapes for this generous wine were grown in the Marlborough region, on low yielding vines. Perfect weather over harvest allowed the grapes to be picked at ideal ripeness and flavour profile.
The grapes were gently crushed, and allowed to cold soak to extract important colour and flavour components. Fermentation proceeded with light plunging for further colour, flavour and fine tannin extraction. The resulting wine was then sent to wood for seven months ageing in quality French oak (23% new wood) to enhance its natural structure. The wine received a light egg white fining and was cross flow filtered prior to bottling on 5th March 2020 under screwcap closure.
Food Pairing: It is an excellent match with salmon, lamb or pork dishes.
