A silky smooth, titillating Pinot Noir from the Wairau Valley in Marlborough, with vibrant red cherry, bramble, earthy nuances and warm spice. The highly sought-after Wairau Valley is an ancient river bed nestled between two mountain ranges and bordered to the North by Cook Strait. Broadly speaking, this finite sub-region of Marlborough covers cooler, drier inland sites, barren stony, early-ripening sites to sea-breeze moderated coastal sites.
