The color of this wine is as vibrant as its sunny raspberry flavor. It's sweet yet balanced, finishing completely dry. The toastiness of aging in older oak helps ameliorate the tannins, which frame the pretty fruit in chipped stone minerality. A fresh take on Marlborough pinot noir.
A youthful wine, with spicy red fruits, a lively, tingly edge, supported by lots of oak, developing layers of flavours and complexity, textural, intense and nicely balanced. Will develop with another few years of bottle age.
