Nestled in a warm and sheltered location, the Taylor Pass vineyard yields Pinot Noirs of exceptional ripeness, a characteristic that deviates from the norm for New Zealand's Marlborough region.

This particular wine stands as a single-vineyard expression of the Taylor Pass terroir. The bouquet is intense, boasting notes of brooding dark cherry and violets that mingle with subtle hints of fresh herbs. The palate showcases a harmonious balance of tannins, complemented by soft acidity and a touch of graphite minerality, all contributing to a focused, well-structured, and lingering experience. The finish offers a delightful interplay of flavours, with layers of dark chocolate, dried herbs, and a touch of spicy oak.
