A wine for all occasions
Pinot Noir is a red grape which has found in New Zealand a home away from home. It's intense, elegant and fruit-driven style makes it an extremely food friendly wine which may exhibit an array of vibrant flavours including red fruit, currant and often with notes of clove and spice.
Our Marlborough Private Bin is a fruit-driven style Pinot Noir with a lively personality, this wine expresses an abundance of red cherries on the nose, along with baking spices such as clove and cinnamon. On the palate, fruit flavours of cranberries and fresh raspberries are intermingled with freshly roasted coffee beans and soft cocoa like-tannins.
Whether you’re enjoying a summer get together with friends or cosied up on the couch next to a roaring fire, Pinot Noir is the perfect wine for all seasons.

Soils And Viticulture
-
A near-perfect growing season led up to the 2020 harvest with fruit in pristine condition. The summer was dry with high sunshine hours during the day and the cooler nights that are typical for Marlborough. Yields were at their optimum level and the stable autumn weather allowed us to extend the hangtime of the fruit on the vines to achieve physiological ripeness.
A bright and succulent Pinot Noir with aromas of cranberries, raspberries, sliced mushrooms, pink peppercorns and spice.
