Marlborough Pinot Noir

From our 100% certified sustainable vineyards in Marlborough’s prime subregions, comes this smoothly luxurious Pinot Noir, displaying delicate spice, plum, cherry and earthy flavours.

TASTING NOTES

Aromas of wild strawberry and cherry. Dark cedar notes with a hint of mint and dried herbs. Ripe, medium weight and good volume with fine tannins and spicy length - finishing with dark fruits and savoury cedar.

This wine is a blend of various parcels of fruit from the extensive Babich vineyards in Marlborough. Fruit was harvested at optimum ripeness and fermented in open vats. After an extended period of maceration the various batches were drained off skins and put into new and old oak barriques. After several months the wines were assessed and blended.

This Babich Pinot Noir goes well with a stir-fry of cubed lamb and eggplant. It also makes a good partner for a steak and mushroom pie.

TASTING NOTES

Lifted spice and dark fruits with cedar notes. Upfront the palate is all dark plum, before opening into a spicy array of cherry, strawberry, a touch of vanilla and earth. Good body and lingering finish.
