Grape

Pinot Noir

Origin
Renowned winemaker Brent Marris has crafted a complex yet harmonious Pinot Noir from the Waihopai River, which comprises three distinct variations in soil structure. Hand-picked and aged for 12 months in French oak, this is a classic, rounded Marlborough Pinot.
Taste
With a subtle smoky character and rounded red berry fruit aromas, on the palate this wine is warming and rich, encompassing every corner of the mouth and leaving a long and smooth finish.
Enjoy
This wine will develop more smoky character if aged, but is great now with roast chicken, duck or turkey.

    great with chorizo

    Outstanding wine and at a great price. I've tried several young Pinots from the main wine areas in NZ and this is the best so far. Buy a platter of Chorizo fill your glass and enjoy! For better you have to spend double, wait for it to age at least 4 yrs and ensure its from Martinborough.(ata rangi)

    Burgundian Finesse

    This is a delightful wine and at the current 20% discount for 2, ridiculously great vfm. Amazingly refined and balanced for a New World Pinot at this price point and much more akin to a good village Volnay or Monthelie. Very good indeed.

Press Reviews

  • Another solid buy (2010 Vintage)

    "Another solid buy that packs in lots of plump but refreshing sweet red fruit alongside a touch of charry oak. (The Wine Gang, www.thewinegang.com, July 2012)"
