“Jackson Estate ‘Homestead’ Pinot Noir, Marlborough”

Description

“Jackson Estate ‘Homestead’ Pinot Noir, Marlborough”. Made in the renowned Marlborough region of New Zealand, this Pinot Noir is a testament to the vibrant, expressive wines the area is known for. The Jackson family has over 160 years of winemaking heritage and take great care in preserving the land, practising sustainable viticulture to maintain the unique terroir. Their ‘Homestead’ vineyard sits on alluvial soils, offering exceptional drainage, which is vital for producing high-quality Pinot Noir. The cool maritime climate of Marlborough, combined with these well-drained soils, allows the grapes to ripen slowly, developing complex flavours while retaining fresh acidity. The winemaking process focuses on minimal intervention, allowing the natural characteristics of the fruit to shine through. The result is a bright and elegant wine, with layers of cherry, raspberry, and a touch of spice. A perfect pairing for the rich flavours of duck, or mushroom dishes.. . . . .
