Giesen Vineyard Select Pinot Noir 2018

Silky smooth Marlborough Pinot. Giesen Estate has been around since the early 1980’s with their inaugural vintage in 1984. The Vineyard Selection represents wines crafted from a variety of plots around specific regions in New Zealand, as well as from grapes planted on a range of different soil types. As a result, this Marlborough Pinot is fruit forward with an intense aroma in the glass and well-balanced acidity on the palate. Typical notes of cherry and soft, ripened black fruits are obvious alongside warm, sweet spices like cinnamon and vanilla. Drink now, or in a few years with a bit more age. – 18/20, Wine Central Tasting Panel

Silky tannins and a finely structured palate frame cherry, warm spice and soft fruits. Insistent yet delicate finish.
