2007 MARLBOROUGH PINOT NOIR

Colour:  Medium depth of colour with purple and crimson notes.

Aroma:  An aromatic wine with black cherries, red currants and strawberries on the nose, complexed with well integrated oak.

Palate:  Lovely fresh fruit on the palate with hints of oak.  Good firm tannins give the wine length and weight.

Cellar: Up to five years.

Food Match: Ideal with lamb or pork chops.  Suited to most rest meats and not bad as a wine to enjoy all on its own.
