Description
Floral aromas pair with rich, dark fruit notes of cherry, boysenberry, and blackberry - followed by hints of spiced clove and cinnamon. A rich palate, with fine, chalky tannin gives structure and length to this wine, while balanced acidity lends energy and elegance.

Vinification
High quality parcels of fruit from the Southern Valleys are picked and managed them in small batches. Our “hands off” approach retains colour and allows the fruit to showcase distinct Marlborough Pinot Noir character. After a period of cold soaking to gently extract flavours and colour prior to fermentation, the wine was matured in a mix of new (24%) and seasoned hogsheads - chosen to build complexity and give a unique style to the wine.
