Paddy Borthwick Pinot Noir 2018
The Paddy Borthwick Pinot Noir is sourced from vines planted in the Gladstone region of Wairarapa, New Zealand. Aged in 100% French oak for 10 months with a mixture of selected cooperages of which 25% of the barrels are new, this Burgundian style Pinot Noir offers a bouquet of maraschino cherries, plums, cranberries and cedar. A core of dark cherry, cloves and wild herbs are supported by bright fruit and French oak that complement a rich soft palate with finely integrated fruit tannins.
