DESCRIPTION
AROMA AND PALATE
This wine presents aromas of warm spicy oak, blackberries and truffles. Lively plum, cherry, and raspberry notes are balanced by a savoury core with hints of nutmeg.
Velvety tannins and bright acidity structure the wine beautifully, for good length of palate and overall harmony.
ENJOY WITH
Ideal with duck dishes, creamy cheeses like Brie, barbequed meats with a hint of smoke, and mushroom or green herb based pasta dishes.
The fruit in this wine comes mainly from across Marlborough, with small amounts from other regions, creating a consistent benchmark Pinot. A variety of yeast strains, and ageing in a mixture of French and American oak are also used, further enhancing complexity. Bright red cherries and summer berries characterise the fruit, highlighted by aromas of dried herbs. The sweetness of the fruit is balanced by firm tannins and a streak of taut acidity. Drink this in its youth, with a mushroom risotto or pasta dish.
