Dashwood Pinot Noir 2004

Winemaker's Notes Our Pinot Noir is bold, fresh, direct, elegant and balanced. It delivers dark cherry, plum and blackberry fruit notes and soft, well-integrated tannins. Critical Acclaim W&S92 Wine & Spirits - "Here's a fresh, floral pinot noir with full-on richness, its texture providing a comfortable velvet nap. There's a tangy orange spice to the aroma, but the main takeaway is that textural finesse. This is made by Glenn Thomas at Vavasour, blending fruit from their local Awatere vineyards with grapes from Wairau. It's a simple pleasure and a great buy for casual entertaining. "

Pinot Noir pairs well with salmon or tuna and meaty white fish, lean red meats, duck, turkey, and fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme. It is also a great choice for the Thanksgiving table.
