Saint Clair Family Estate Pioneer Block 15 Strip Block Pinot Noir 2022, Waihopai, Marlborough

A ruby core with pink and ruby hues lead to a bouquet of plum and cherry jam, there’s a mix of leather and autumnal leaves then roasted nut and stony earth ideas. A layer of wood smoke suggest cinnamon and clove. Overall complex and enticing. On the palate a dry wine with flavours that mirror the bouquet wrapped in textures of polished tannins and medium+ acidity. Well made, still developing and quite delicious. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2030+.
