JULES TAYLor
MARLBOROUGH PINOT NOIR

Fickle and demanding, this little number is a piece of work, but has turned into some
Dangerously good Marlborough Pinot Noir. – Jules

Winemaker’s Notes:

• • Color: Bright ruby red

  • Nose: Intense aromas of ripe plums, damsons and boysenberries sit alongside notes of dark chocolate and layered over just a hint of spicy, earthiness.

  • Palate: An intense mouthful reflective of the dry vintage, full of ripe, concentrated boysenberry, plum and dark chocolate flavours and with a weighty texture on the palate. It has loads of supple, fine tannins and the finish is long, spicy and delicious, suggesting a wine that will develop nicely over the coming years.
