Matua Pinot Noir

Ready to drink now or age for up to three years, Matua Marlborough New Zealand Pinot Noir red wine offers vibrant flavors and perfectly balanced oak aging. We soaked the grapes for two days before fermentation to develop depth of flavor and tannins. The wine was aged with French oak for an average of 6 months for just enough toastiness to complement the incredible fruit flavors. Since 1974, Matua has crafted a family of fine wines with grapes sourced from New Zealands most renowned wine regions: Hawkes Bay, Marlborough, and Central Otago. From the north to the south, New Zealands wine growing regions all offer something unique for a refreshing, chilled experience.

Tasting Notes

This aromatic Pinot Noir starts with concentrated blackberry and dark cherry combined with hints of mocha and a rich smoky char from French oak. On the palate, ripe fruit flavours of plum unfold to a earthy wild spice with a ripe and juicy finish. Concentrated & structured with serious length, this is classic Central Otago Pinot Noirat its best.
