Fire Road Marlborough Pinot Noir 2025
Immediately bright & fresh
Immediately bright & fresh
Description
Coffee, Oak, Raspberry
The palate is fresh and fruit-forward, with black cherry, cocoa and gentle savoury notes, finishing clean and crisp with soft powdered tannins and a touch of toasted oak. Easy-drinking yet characterful, it’s delicious now and will develop further over the next three to five years.
Marlborough’s worst-ever fire on Boxing Day 2000 burned for three days, scorching 6,000 hectares, killing stock, and threatening Blenheim and surrounding vineyards. Disaster was narrowly avoided thanks to the brave residents—now honoured as the Fireroad community—who battled the blaze with buckets and handheld hoses until a lucky wind shift came to their aid. Today, the Fireroad vineyards thrive in that same hot, dry climate, producing a Pinot Noir that opens with bright red fruits, subtle spice, raspberry and a hint of chocolate.
Crafted from carefully selected subregional sites and made with cold-soaking, hand plunging and French oak maturation, it’s beautifully balanced at 13.5% alcohol.
Food Pairing: A perfect match for red meat, rich tomato pasta or a Thai beef salad.
