The Ned Pinot Noir 2020
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandThe Ned is a snappy name for a snappy Marlborough pinot with a modest price tag. The secret sauce in Marlborough is the long, cool growing season that allows the fruit to hang on the vine, achieving optimal ripeness without packing on the alcohol. Look for a mix of florals, wild strawberries, and silky pinot textures with a spicy, earthy finish. Fresh, juicy, and fun to drink now. The fruit is ripe, concentrated, and well-defined, led by bright dark berries, which give this a natural appeal. But there's depth, too, with a hint of spice and earth to add complexity. Even with that darker fruit profile, this is still fresh, juicy, and easy to enjoy alone or paired with smoked salmon and cream cheese appetizers.Tasted: 06 April 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $21.49 | 750ml | BCLS |
