Description
"This superbly-priced pinot offers excellent drinkability. Fragrant aromas of red cherry, raspberry, strawberry and warm spice lead to a beautifully rounded palate that is juicy and tasty. The wine offers elegance and harmony, finishing long and silky. At its best: now to 2019" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2017.
This vibrant Pinot Noir has aromas of sun warmed ripe rasberry combined with underlying hints of spice. The palate is fresh and juicy with flavours of ripe black currants, red cherries and hints of dried herb. A beautifully balanced wine with subtle oak, fine powdered structure and a long, silky finish. Fruit from various vineyard sites in Marlborough helps create depth and expression in this wine. Selected yeast strains were used for fermentation and the wine was hand plunged frequently throughout ferment. The wine was gently pressed off skins, then underwent 100 per cent malolactic fermentation before being blended and gently prepared for bottling.
Food Pairing: Works beautifully with roast lamb and kumara mash.
