$182.00

NEW ZEALAND WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

A Pinot Noir with vibrant red cherry, bramble, earthy nuances and warm spice. Silky, smooth, supple and well-structured.

We select fruit from vineyards throughout the Wairau Valley in the Marlborough wine region.

The highly sought-after Wairau Valley is an ancient river bed nestled between two mountain ranges and bordered to the North by Cook Strait. Broadly speaking, this finite sub-region of Marlborough covers cooler, drier inland sites, barren stony, early-ripening sites to sea-breeze moderated coastal sites.

This scope gives us the ability to consistently blend to our Giesen style year in, year out, which gives us a bright, aromatic and elegant style of Pinot Noir.

Winemaking
We harvest our Pinot Noir early in the harvest season to retain acidity and to get bright, fresh flavours. We do warmer ferments on our Pinot Noir to bring out colour and flavours in the wine.
We age our Giesen Estate Pinot Noir on French oak for 8 months.

Description

There is no wine anywhere in the world that tastes like the wine of Marlborough. Balance, purity and intense flavour set around impressive aroma, distinctive fruit and appealing balanced acidity is unrivalled.

Giesen Wines own 13 vineyards, of which 11% are certified organic with BioGro New Zealand. They have been strategically acquired throughout the highly sought after Wairau Valley and maintain strong long-term relationships with some of the Valley’s best growers. This gives us a range of grape growing conditions which ensures we consistently have the finest grapes from the region each vintage.

Giesen wines have been peeling away the layers and exploring the purity of organic flavour. Three years in the making, the Giesen Brothers have produced their first organic alternative to the traditional Marlborough sauvignon blanc. The palate has delicious fruit weight and zesty flavours and gives a taste of what nature intended, one of which nature has grown.
