Sugar Loaf Pinot Noir 2021, Southern Valleys, Marlborough
Varietal, fruity and youthful with a bouquet and palate filled with black currant and dark cherry. There’s layers of barrel spice with a toasty edge, vanilla and clove qualities, and dark rose. The textures set a decent foundation in place with firm-ish tannins and medium+ acid line, these allow the fruit flavours and barrel reflections to shine. A youthful wine with a tautness that needs to settle and ageing begin in earnest. Best drinking from mid to late 2025 through 2033+.
