Tasting: Marlborough Pinot Noir

Raspberries and cherries, quite firm, with lively acidity and fine tannins. Warm-ish finish.

Christine Parkinson

Tasting: Marlborough Pinot Noir

Mocha and ripe raspberry aromas. Nice earthy minerality at front, with berries and cafe creme notes. Tannins quite soft, acidity rounded, feels a little tired.

14.5/20

Chunky, quite ripe, but with a strong herbal note.
