adding a well-balanced finish

With a bright ruby red color

although one notable difference is that Laurent totally de-stems giving wines that are more immediately perfumed and accessible in their youth while still having ample depth and structure to age classically

and on the palate you get a lip-smacking sweet/sour tang with herbal body and generosity

The highlights are layered forest red fruits and dark chocolate

Novum Pinot Noir 2023 bargota adding a well-balanced finishThe 2023 Pinot is deliciously dark and brooding, crafted from fruit sourced from three individual vineyards in Marlborough's Southern Valley. Its intensely serious, with a gorgeous palate of dark plum and red cherry, a meaty palate with a fruity core and layers of herbs and spice. It pays homage to the elegant styles of Burgundy, whilst remaining a true celebration of New Zealands terroir.
