Natalie's Score: 94/100

Lots of flavours on this smoky and smooth, medium-plus-bodied Pinot Noir from the Marlborough with cedar spice and ripe cherry aromas on the nose. Juicy with bright cherry, red berry, bergamot, pink florals and white pepper flavours on the palate with a lingering smoky finish. Enjoy now and for the next eight years.

Pinot Noir food pairings: roast leg of lamb, roast pork with corn niblets and red bell pepper, roast crackling duck.

Reviews and Ratings

Astrolabe Wines Province 2015 7 Pinot Noir is smoky on the nose with rose petals and black tea aromas. An incredibly different PN. Medium-plus-bodied, satiny and supple on the palate with smoky cherries cedar spice, and baking spice flavours with vibrant acidity for food. Elegant and satisfying. Pair with a lamb shoulder roast. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
