Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
This Pinot Noir is a vibrant cherry colour, exuding an aroma of sweet raspberry complimented with sweet and spicy oak, just hinting at the layers and depth of fresh and fruity flavour. Bright and energetic to taste, it is brimming with red fruit and soft, supple tannins, perfectly seasoned with a dash of oak for those light toasty notes. For the finale is a fresh, lingering finish.

Winemaking
Winemaking
The grapes are sourced from Marlborough, where the vintage was a beauty for Pinot Noir, creating scrumptious flavour and delicacy. We soaked the grapes for 2 days before fermentation to develop depth of flavor and tannin. The wine was aged with French oak for an average of 6 months, for just enough toastiness to compliment the incredible fruit flavours in this wine.
