Triplebank Pinot Noir Marlborough 2015 – $
A new label for me. An Awatere Valley wine from the Pernod Ricard stable of brands.
Pinot ruby. 13.5% alc.
Lightly aromatic, moderately comples on the nose, sweet red cherries, lightly spiced. Hint of stalk/whole bunch.
Simple flavours, not a lot going on. Moderate ripeness and extract, what you would expect from a Pinot at this price point. A bit sharp and metallic towards the finish.
