Montford Estate Central Otago Pinot Noir
Hailing from the prestigious Central Otago wine region, the inaugural Montford Estate Pinot Noir is a sophisticated and soothing drink, very comfortable in its own skin. It possesses a bouquet of bright red fruits, not quite ripe plums, violets and potpourri.
The palate is equally gentle in its approach. Raspberry and strawberry notes give way to some earthy beetroot and savoury influences. The tannin profile is velvety and is supported by a delicate acidity with hints of five spice and nutmeg.
Montford Estate Marlborough Pinot Noir
The fruit for this wine was sourced from three main sites in Marlborough's Southern Valleys. The clay dominated soils in this exciting Marlborough sub-region give wines of structure and Intense concentration.
Aromatics of red cherry, spiced strawberry, and raspberry coulis mingle with delicate allspice notes and an earthy complexity to create a richly perfumed bouquet full of intrigue.
The palate is vibrant, again with primary fruits and bramble, accentuated with a fine layer of cedary oak and a smooth tannin profile.
