The Marlborough region of New Zealand, though famous for its unique and electrifying style of Sauvignon Blanc, is not a one-trick pony, as this Pinot Noir clearly shows. A lighter style of Pinot Noir, it delivers a delightful combination of red fruit, savory notes and spice. It’s rare to find Pinot Noir with this finesse and quality at the price. My advice: Snap it up.
