Tasting Notes:

A gently expressed pinot, the fragrant bouquet shows red/black cherry, floral and subtle nutty complexity. Black cherry and plum are complemented by subtle cassis and hints of bramble. A friendly and approachable style showing appealing fruit flavours. Well balanced acidity ensures good length and leads to a silky finish.

Technical:

With a history of periodic flooding from the Wairau River, the Marlborough region is now protected by the construction of earth barriers or Stopbanks along the river’s edge. We recognise this resourceful engineering design as integral to the success of one of the world’s most vibrant wine regions.

Growing along the river is the Harekeke, a flax unique to New Zealand, which thrives along with the vineyards of Marlborough.

Sourced from low yielding, well-tended vineyard sites the fruit for this wine was picked at optimal ripeness and transported to the winery for de-stemming and chilling. Each batch was cold soaked in open-top tanks for three days and then fermented. During fermentation each batch was hand plunged up to six times a day to extract colour and flavour. The wine then went through full malolactic fermentation and was aged on lees before being blended, stabilised and prepared for bottling.

Accolades & Awards:

90 Points & 4 Star Rated, Wine Orbit

“It is nicely fragrant on the nose displaying spiced cherry, game, floral and subtle earthy mushroom characters. The palate delivers elegant fruit intensity and silky texture, backed by fine tannins. A friendly, fruit-expressive pinot offering rounded mouthfeel.

Raymond Chan Review

“This is an elegant, restrained Pinot Noir with good textures."

Rated 5 out of 5 by Paddy from Great served chilled This was a lovely smooth wine. I heard of drinking Pinot chilled and thought I’d give it a go....will be the way to drink it from now on! I’m disappointed though I can’t get another case of this Pinot!

Rated 5 out of 5 by tukafukadramaqueen from cool it for hot nites great example of a simple Pinot Noir which appreciates a slightly cooler drinking temp......so extra perky on these hot days. Easy on palate on almost a summer pinot

Rated 4 out of 5 by SimonJames from Soft Pinot at a good price Any NZ Pinot around the $10 mark is a good buy. It's missing the big NZ flavours but giving it some air certainly helps

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jenny m from Terrific value I love this wine with or without food. It’s light but well balanced with a terrific nose and smooth on the palate.
