Yealands Estate
Yealands Estate SV Pinot Noir 2015 Awatere Valley Marlborough
Ripe, fresh, fruity and quite earthy with stony mineral tones, dark red berry fruits and a softer dried herb layer, there's a generosity and concentration in the fruit and darker brown spice notes from the oak - all equalling a lively and classic example from the Y. On the palate - dry, crisp, firm fruity and balanced; flavours reflect the bouquet, finer tannins, plenty of acidity and length; a balanced and well made example.
