It’s a New Zealand South Island double whammy this week. This second one’s from Marlborough but this time, it’s red. Made from the Pinot Noir grape, which seems to love this region’s warm days and cool nights. Most of Marlborough is covered with Sauvignon Blanc vines, but plantings of Pinot Noir are on the rise. Hurrah to that, because the quality is getting better all the time. Think spicy raspberry fruit, not too heavy but with enough oomph to be taken seriously. Fantastic value.
