Lake Chalice2020/21 ‘The Nest’ Pinot Noir, Lake Chalice
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandVintage: 2020
This is the wineries tasting note and its so good we thought we would share it with you :
To experience the exotic aroma and tastes of this Pinot Noir from the Waipara Valleys, we’d like you to join us on a magic carpet ride to a middle eastern market bazaar. The bustling market stalls fill the air with the aroma of ripe berries and dried fruits. The spice stall owners spruik their wears, waving vanilla pods and pouring cardamom spices theatrically onto their scales in front of your nose. All these elements combine in glorious cinematic technicolour for the tastebuds. Softly textured with ripe berry fruits and dried currants set against a backdrop of warmed spices. Rub this bottle of Waipara Pinot Noir three times before pouring it, and the first sip might transport you there again. No magic carpet required.
Why we love it
An elegant and silky Pinot Noir with great aromatics, so smooth and silky with a long, toasty finish.
