A medium-bodied, silky-textured effort, VM's 2019 Private Bin Pinot Noir offers plenty of herb-stained red raspberries and cranberries, with just a dash of mocha-tinged oak in the background. It sets a solid standard for entry-level Pinot Noir, offering modest complexity and intensity, supple tannins and a harmonious finish. Drink it over the next few years.

Tangy wild berry, candied cherry and cranberry flavors are fresh and vibrant, with notes of sandalwood, fresh herbs and white pepper that linger on the juicy finish. Drink now. 6,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: New Zealand / Marlborough Select to Add
