Brightwater Nelson Pinot Noir
Pale ruby red in colour. Fragrant and floral on the nose with aromas of red berries, violets, rose, raspberries and strawberry jam. Dry and light in body with well-balanced but fresh acidity and very soft/light tannins. Nicely concentrated fruit flavours for the relatively light body. Flavours of ripe raspberries, strawberries, cherry cake and some darker, damson and black cherry flavours. Hints of white pepper and spice on the finish. Great value for money.
In December 2015, the 2014 vintage was awarded the very prestigious Air New Zealand Pinot Noir Trophy.

Awards and/or Press Quotes | Winestate Magazine 5 Stars, Enticingly floral, very finely textured and harmonious red with excellent depth of ripe plum and spice flavours, gently seasoned with French oak, supple tannins and a lengthy finish. Great value.’ Sam Kim, Wine Orbit 90 Points, 4.5 Stars, ‘Elegantly expressed, this charming pinot shows fragrant aromas of red/black cherry, game and almond with a hint of dried herb notes. It’s ripe and rounded on the palate with attractive fruit flavours, beautifully framed by supple tannins. The wine shows lovely purity as well as delicate complexity.’ |
