Oyster Bay
Marlborough Pinot Noir
Marlborough, South Island, New Zealand
A very light Pinot Noir with a thin body. A fruity and fresh nose. The taste is very smooth with a pleasing minerality and a lot of fresh fruit flavor. A clean finish has you wanting more. Recommended to serve slightly chilled, as the alcohol become more pronounced as it warms up and some of the more subtle flavours and smoothness are lost.

Someone said "ballpark hot dog," which made me laugh. But I get it. I was going to simply go with "campfire smoke," but mostly on the palate. Fun wine. Would recommend.

Fantastic Pinot for the price. Old world in profile. Pomegranate, smokey Bing cherry- very clear in color. Cool climate sharpness

On the nose, like picking up a handful of wet forest dirt, with some mushrooms, and a couple of red fruits in there. Gentle acidity and a quick, but tapered finish. First time trying a New Zealand Pinot. Sick
