Decibel Martinborough Pinot Noir 2021
92 POINTS: Bob Campbell MW
"Medium-bodied wine with plum, dark cherry, violet, cassis, blackberry and spice/anise flavours with a backbone of fine, ripe tannins. Supple, elegant wine with a lingering finish and an appealing core of fruit sweetness."
- Bob Campbell MW
Dark and brooding in colour; the oak-spiced nose leads with notes of clove and dried rose petal, giving way to intriguing tar and dried fruit aromas. The palate is fruit-forward with layers of roasted strawberries, black cherry cola, and the fresh acidity of a ripe damson plum. The tannins carve a very fine long line, drawing the palate out and reflecting the elegant vintage afforded by a season of perfect weather.
ABV: 13-14%
