Wine Description
True to Stoneleigh style, this soft, supple Pinot Noir captures the essence
of Marlborough, New Zealand's most acclaimed winemaking region. This
fragrant, well-integrated Pinot Noir has been crafted from small,
concentrated grapes with classic Marlborough Pinot Noir flavors.
Color: Deep ruby red
Aromas: Fragrant bouquet of black cherry, raspberry, red plums overlaid
with savory toasty spice.
Palate: Ripe dark red berry fruit flavors dominate the palate. This wine is
soft and supple with lingering fruit sweetness balanced by fine integrated
tannins.
Best enjoyed with succulent red meat dishes such as spring lamb, duck,
game or veal. Dishes featuring mushrooms and red berry fruit will also
complement this Pinot Noir beautifully.
This wine may be enjoyed now but will continue to develop with careful
cellaring for up to five years.
