Description
Pinot Noir is the rising star of Marlborough and the variety that most expresses the differences from season to season. Grown on the southern hills in clay soils, this Pinot is well rounded with oh-so juicy flavours of cherry and black Doris plum. The wild fermentation along with extended lees maturation have added complexity and texture to the dark fruits and the finish is dry with a nice touch of dark chocolate and spice.
94 POINTS - CAMERON DOUGLAS, MASTER SOMMELIER
"Another well crafted Pinot Noir from Jules and the team, a seamless wine from the bouquet through the palate with aromas and flavours of black cherry and dark plum, some baking spices from oak and fresh fruit spices add complexity. Dry, firm, youthful, a taut squeeze and salivating impact with flavours of dark berries and plums begin to fill the palate. Tannins and acidity add the tautness and palate squeeze circling back to fruit for the finish. Best drinking from 2026 through 2033+."
FOOD MATCH
This wine pairs beautifully with appetisers such as a charcuterie plate, or a platter of homemade seeded crackers and smoky eggplant dip. For something more substantial, try it with pulled pork sliders served with kimchi and slaw or a slow cooked lamb leg on a cooler day.
