"A flavorful and succulent New Zealand Pinot Noir, according to James Suckling!"

“[...] Attractive, with notes of cranberry, pomegranate, red cherry, and a hint of bacon fat, it offers silky fruit, fine, powdery tannins, lively acidity, and a juicy, well-defined mid-palate. The finish is slightly lively and fairly long. Sourced from the Mustang, Barracks, and Delta vineyards, located in the rolling hills of the Southern Valleys. 2025–2032” (Decanter 2025) • Screw cap

About the wine:

Cloudy Bay’s Marlborough Pinot Noir can sometimes be overshadowed by its prestigious cousin from Central Otago, the Te Wahi, but it’s a charming wine. Attractive, with notes of cranberry, pomegranate, red cherry, and a hint of bacon fat, it features silky fruit, fine, powdery tannins, lively acidity, and a juicy, well-defined mid-palate. The finish is slightly lively and fairly long. Sourced from the Mustang, Barracks, and Delta vineyards, located in the rolling hills of the Southern Valleys. 2025–2032

About the wine:

Rich and complex, with well-defined aromatic notes of black cherry, blueberry, and black tea. Cardamom and white pepper linger on the finish, where the tannins gently firm up. Ready to drink now.

About the wine:

The 2023 Marlborough Pinot Noir is both lively and smooth. Primary aromas of plum and red cherry blend with spicy notes from the oak, as well as hints of tobacco and cedar. Despite its maturity, it exudes an enticing freshness. The 2023 vintage is well-crafted and pleasantly balanced. 2025–2033
