2006 Stone Creek Marlborough Pinot Noir
Tasting Note
Ruby red in colour with a fragrant nose of strawberry, cherry and black olive.

The palate shows nice delicate fruit with the strawberry and cherry coming to the fore with the black olive mingling subtly. Soft fine tannins with a hint of toasty oak characters round out the mouth feel.

Light to medium bodied, this wine is best enjoyed with lighter dishes such as Italian or vegetarian meals.

Under screw cap, this may be cellared for approximately five years from the bottling date to develop Pinot Noir's characteristic earthy attributes.
