Yealands Reserve Pinot Noir 2019, Awatere Valley, Marlborough

Ripe, fruity, varietal and unctuous bouquet with aromas of dark red apple skin and plum, some cherry moments then sweet vanilla and sweet wood tones of oak. Quite complex yet very youthful still. On the palate - equally fruity and savoury with flavours of plums and dark cherry, some toasty barrel flavours, clove and vanilla moments and a fine savoury core. Balanced fine tannins and fresh acid line adding crispness and length. Youthful throughout the palate with a good length, balance and complexity. Nice wine. best drinking from 2021 through 2025.
