Saint Clair Origin Range Pinot Noir 2024 750ml

A rich and fruit forward Pinot Noir with flavours of black cherry and cranberry with a hint of spice.

The fruit was sourced from a number of specifically chosen, low cropping vineyards from the Southern Valleys region of the Wairau Plain. Leading up to harvest each vineyard was closely monitored and tasted to determine when the flavours were at their optimum. The fruit was then harvested in the cool hours of the morning.

Colour: Rich garnet red.

Aroma: Ripe summer berry fruit with savoury notes and a hint of toasted oak.

Palate: A rich and fruit forward Pinot Noir with flavours of ripe boysenberry, black cherry and raspberry with a hint of spice. Elegant with a smooth, refined structure leading to a long toasty finish.

• Well-matched with garlic and rosemary lamb rack with a side of fresh lettuce and pistachio salad.
• Drinking beautifully from release date, wine can be enjoyed young or cellared carefully to gain greater complexity over the next three years.

4.5 Stars - Wine Orbit: Sam Kim, 2023
"It's immediately appealing on the nose showing sweet plum, olive, roasted nut and warm spice aromas. The palate is equally charming with juicy fruit intensity together with smooth texture and well-rounded tannins, finishing silky and soothing."
