“A savoury Pinot Noir style with dried herb, nutty oak, earth and plum flavours. Moderate complexity and a bone-dry finish. Like many Marlborough wines from the 2008 vintage it lacks a little fruit intensity.“ – 82points, Bob Campbell
Succulent ripe cherry, berry and plum fruits combine with gamey savoury notes and a hint of mocha on the nose. Fine tannins and supple oak complement the fruit giving further texture, and the palate is generous and lingering. An elegant Pinot Noir that is approachable in style and whilst drinking well now will reward further cellaring.
Bright vibrant red. Lifted sweet and sour cherry nose with soft chocolate oak. A soft, balanced palate of dark plum with rounded tannins and subtle spicy tones.
“Salmon-pink, it is a complex wine, weaving a spicy web around cherry and strawberry fruit. Well-balanced, it is by no means painfully dry or austere, just serious. ” - 94points, James Halliday
Dark ruby red. Deep red cherry and raspberry fruits complexed with French oak spice and mocha notes. Ripe red fruit characters give sweetness through-out the palate. Fruit and oak tannin combine to give complexity, length, structure and richness.
Reasonably dense, grainy-textured wine with with sweet cherry, strawberry, floral and bramble flavours. Good acidity giving vibrance and energy. A slightly edgy style. Good food wine.
