Nautilus Estate Cuvée Marlborough NV Brut NV

Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandThis 70/30 pinot noir/chardonnay was disgorged in September 2014 after spending three years on the lees. Five to fifteen percent reserve wine ups the ample richness here. A savoury, soy saltiness permeates a full bodied, nutty and doughy base. Ginger spicing warms the pear and red apple fruit to a very pithy, moderate finish. Rich and evolved style, missing subtlety.Tasted: 12 July 2016Tasted by: Prices:
