He says: This is a solid Pinot Noir, but would it be worth the $40-50 CAD it’d be priced at in BC? Probably not.
She says: For me, this was a disappointment, especially at the £20 price tag.

She says: This wine to me was a bit like a yo-yo. He says: This wine was a major letdown for me given the price and all the buzz in the Lower Mainland about this producer. 
She says: Having been unimpressed with other Malborough Pinot Noir I’ve tasted, this wine proved to me that they can deliver on this finicky variety. He says: At an informal blind tasting we attended of 7 different Pinot Noirs between $25 & $70, this one took first place in our books. Enough said. 
He says: I was far from blown-away by this Pinot. Another less than stellar entry from Marlborough. Failed to shine against Bin 941′s duck dish; more suited to the fatty lamb confit. She says: It is a step up from the Villa Maria but also a step up in price. 
She says: This has, “Marlborough should stick to whites and let Central Otago do what they do best” written all over it; He says: a simple Pinot Noir, held back by its lackluster feel in the mouth. |
