Saint Clair Family Estate
Pioneer Block 16 Pinot Noir 2021 750ml
The Awatere vineyard is named from a north-facing hillside vineyard, overlooking the Awatere Valley, 25km south of Blenheim township.
Aroma:
Elegant with succulent wild berry, dried thyme and pretty floral aromatics.
Palate:
Fruit forward with flavours of cherry and fresh red plum. The acid is perfectly balanced with the silky texture. Hints of spice and toasty oak lead to a complex and generous finish.
Cam Douglas MS
A bouquet of white smoke and savoury complexity, dark berries and earthy spices, there’s a light sea air quality adding complexity and intrigue. Delicious, varietal, ripe, dry and savoury. Aromas and flavours of dark cherry flesh and black currant skin, a smoky wood quality and associated barrel spices deliver a complete wine. Tannins and acidity frame the whole wine very nicely adding complexity and length. Well made and ready to drink from 2025 through 2032+.
