Pinot Noir
Tasting Notes
The Marlborough Pinot Noir offers a bouquet of strawberry and spice aromas balanced with savory dark cherry and earthy notes. Supple and bright flavors of cinnamon and raspberry unfold on the palate. It is medium-bodied and elegant with juicy red fruit lingering on the finish.
Vineyards
The grapes are sourced from 100% certified sustainable vineyards managed under a philosophy of kaitiaki – the Māori concept of guardianship for sky, sea, and land. This wine is a blend of various parcels of fruit from vineyards in Marlborough.
Winemaking
Fruit was harvested at optimum ripeness and fermented in open vats. After an extended period of maceration the various batches were drained off the skins and portions put into new and old oak barriques. After several months the wines were assessed and blended.
