Tasting Notes
Mount Riley's 2022 Marlborough Pinot Noir opens with an inviting bouquet of fresh red cherries, wild strawberries, and a delicate violet florality that speaks to the cool-climate origins of the Wairau Valley. On the palate, the wine is silky and graceful, delivering layers of ripe raspberry and plum alongside a subtle earthiness reminiscent of forest floor and dried herbs. Fine-grained tannins provide gentle structure without weight, while a bright natural acidity keeps the wine lively and food-friendly. The oak influence is restrained and well-integrated, lending a whisper of cedar and warm spice that adds complexity without overshadowing the fruit.
