Tasting note

Food-friendly and a super value, this refreshing, cool-climate Pinot Noir from New Zealand offers classic flavours of black cherry and raspberry with earthy notes. Shines with a range of foods, such as pulled pork sandwiches, roasted chicken or salmon ceviche.

This dry, medium-bodied and fruity red displays a simple and medium nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity, smooth tannins, and broad texture precede a medium finish.

Purple and crimson colour with aromas of black cherries, red currants, integrated oak and a smoky bacon character. The palate is a nice combination of dark cherries and red fruit underscored with a hint of oak and firm tannins. Persists well.

The palate is rich, with red berry flavours providing nice fruit sweetness. Soft tannins ensure that the wine is approachable in its youth; however, it does have the structure to enable the wine to develop over the years.

This wine is enticingly aromatic showing notes of dark cherries and strawberries.  Partially aged in French oak barrels for the alluring complexity of well integrated oak and fine silky tannins.  Aged in a mixture of French oak barrels and tank for five months.  Superb with herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risotto or all on its own.
