Matua Valley Pinot Noir Rose 2017
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandA good growing season has yielded some tasty fruit that was picked under cool conditions. Interestingly, the delicate pressings were separated into small batches where each separate run was inoculated with a different yeast. Post ferment and blending the final mix was left on its lees and it has made an impression in the wine’s texture and complexity - maybe a little too much. That said, many will be attracted to its bright, orchard fruit flavours, bolstered by a strawberry, leesy undercurrent. Mouth-wateringly crisp and dry, it is very food-friendly.
