This dozen represents a great cross section of the wines of Marlborough. Most of these wines offer great drinking right now with the Pinots having the ability to age for a few years. If you can leave them for that long they will soften and offer a little more complexity of flavour.
ABOUT THE REGION:
There’s no question that Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc continues to be the leading light for Marlborough but it is clear that the most serious producers are diversifying their range. At our TOP 6 tasting there were outstanding examples of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Gewurztraminer. I personally preferred a lot of these wines to the Sauvignon Blancs and I think the future is bright for Marlborough as a provider of a broad range of styles and grape varieties.
