The Sisters Marlborough Pinot Noir 2018

The Sisters Marlborough Pinot Noir 2018

  • Sweet raspberry
  • Spiced cherry
  • Gentle tannins
  • Velvety mouthfeel

Bright ruby red, this fruity Pinot Noir offers an enticing nose of ripe, berry fruit. It is juicy and smooth with a velvety texture and lots of sweet raspberry and cherry flavours together with a touch of spice. Gentle tannins provide backbone but don’t overpower this attractive wine.

2018 went well for them although wasn’t without a few weather issues! Having their own harvester meant they could go and pick each block exactly when they wanted to – perfect in a more challenging year!

Made with grapes from their Wairau and Waihopai Valley vineyards, the fruit was ripe and juicy with a good balance of acidity. Firstly, the fruit underwent cold maceration for just under a week, prior to small-batch fermentation. After two to three weeks on skins, the wine was pressed off. 75% was matured in barrel (predominantly older oak, three to five years old) for ten months while the rest remained in tank. The wine was not fined so is vegan-friendly.

The Sisters is a proud and committed supporter of Dress for Success. Wine by Lawson’s Dry Hills made at their own vineyards. 100% certified sustainable and carbon-zero.

Food Pairing: roast lamb, game, ham, seared salmon, seared tuna, Asian flavours and anything off the barbecue.
