"This is a fresh, concentrated and sweetly rich Pinot Noir with flavours of ripe, dark raspberry fruit, and fine structure"
"Hand-picked fruit from the Wairau, Brancott, Northbank and Awatere districts, fermented to 13.5% alc., the wine aged 10 months in 20% new French oak barriques. Full, deep, dark ruby-red colour with youthful purple hues on rim. The bouquet is elegantly proportioned and tightly packed with deep aromas of ripe, black berry and cherry fruit with raspberry liqueur, dark herb, spicy oak and nutty complexities. Medium-full bodied, concentrated and sweetly rich fruit flavours of dark red berry fruit, raspberry liqueur and liquorice feature on the palate forming a deep heart. The fruit sweetness is enriched by bright acidity and supported by fine, grainy tannin extraction, providing a balanced and complete mouthfeel. The palate leads to a concentrated and long-lingering finish with ripe plum and spicy oak elements. This is a fresh, concentrated and sweetly rich Pinot Noir with flavours of ripe, dark raspberry fruit, and fine structure. Match with duck, pork and lamb over the next 5-6 years. "Raymond Chan
"This is spicy, earthy and complex on the nose displaying leather, game, smoked meat and mixed spice characters with sweet berry undertones. The palate is silky and rounded with elegant fruit intensity, beautifully framed by fine tannins, leading to a lingering savoury finish. At its best: now to 2017. Sept 2016" Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Pale to medium ruby purple in colour, the 2012 Pinot Noir offers up a nose of ripe black cherries and black raspberries complimented by hints of underbrush and Provence herbs. Framed around a decent core of uncomplicated black and red berry flavours, the medium body is supported by a low level of chewy tannins and lively acid through the medium to long finish." Robert Parker
"Blended from four areas in Wairau and Awatere, this is a bright, zesty Marlborough pinot with plenty of grip and intensity to its structure. The fruit is purple-black up front, lasting on a garnet-red line of pomegranate fragrance. The soft, tufted texture makes it a soothing match for a Sunday roast." Wine & Spirits, US
"Delicately scented Pinot Noir with red cherry, spice, violet and slightly sappy, savoury flavours. A very typical example of Marlborough Pinot Noir in a supple and slightly understated style." Bob Campbell
"Good medium red. Strawberry and spices on the nose and palate, along with a smoky, meaty element. Spicy and pungent in the mouth, showing good pinot definition and intensity. The savory finish features good length and a late hint of cherry." Stephen Tanzer
Deep ruby red color with berry fruit flavours. On the nose, some lovely peppery Morrocan spice notes, raspberry, strawberry, red cherry, an earthy Ïforest floor leaf note and just a hint of sweet spicy oak. The fresh berry fruit aromas continue through onto the palate, together with a rich underlay of christmas fruit cake, long savoury after taste. A very good example of Marlborough Pinot Noir.
