Opawa Marlborough Pinot Noir 2021

Description

Oak, Plum, Spice

A medium bodied and beautifully balanced Marlborough Pinot Noir. The nose shows attractive notes of fresh Black Doris plums and raspberries with a hint of cloves and earthy complexity. The palate displays supple red fruit flavours and soft, fine tannins. This wine has an elegant structure, silky texture and juicy acidity to give freshness, and it closes in a lingering finish.

This wine was made from selected premium vineyards in our dedicated Pinot Noir Cellar using principles of minimal handling and gravity flow. After a cold soak and indigenous fermentation, the wine was pressed into French oak barriques for maturation, before being clarified and bottled in February 2022.
