Product Notes

Corofin Settlement Vineyard East Slope Pinot Noir is a truly compelling New Zealand wine, evocative of the pristine Marlborough region. This elegant wine displays a rich ruby hue along with enticing aromas of ripe red fruit subtly layered with notes of dark chocolate and spice. Immaculate taste embodies a harmonious balance between juicy cherries and smooth tannins, superbly rounded off with a refreshing acidity. This Pinot Noir unfolds over a medium-bodied palate, maintaining a graceful persistence. Celebrated for its individuality and true varietal expression, it encapsulates a mesmerising New World charm. Ultimately, it’s a splendid choice for discerning wine aficionados.

Tasting Notes

This has a beautifully aromatic nose with sweet berry and sour cherry fruit, some floral notes, and a hint of leafy greenness. The palate has lovely focus with more of the sour cherry character, a hint of undergrowth, and a lovely finely spiced structure to the fruit. This is pretty serious: it’s got bags of Marlborough character.
