Fruit sourced from a sustainably farmed, grower vineyard in the Ben Morven sub-region of Marlborough. Hand harvested into small bins, the fruit was carefully sorted on arrival at the winery. A small portion (10%) of whole bunches went into the tank with the balance destemmed and the must spent twelve days on skins. The fermentation was with indigenous yeast in two-three year old French oak barrels. 

Lovely light ‘Pinot’ colour. There are generous aromatics of red fruits and attractive florals. Also a hint of something earthy. Not at all boring! The palate is succulent, juicy and bright with vibrant red fruits, a whiff of smoke and a smack of sappiness adding interest and depth.

Reviews

"Wonderfully floral on the nose with sweet cherry and plum fruit with some meaty richness and a spicy edge. The palate is fresh, showing good concentration and intensity, with bright, sleek berry fruits and some fine spicy notes. Lovely intensity and vitality: this is a serious Pinot Noir with a lot of personality."
