Winemaker Notes
The wine exhibits strong primary berry fruit flavours of cherry and plum, with a background of oak and a spicy complexity. Quite Burgundian in style, this wine displays the concentration and fine structure required for longevity and potential for years of further development in the bottle.
Alcohol: 13.3% by volume

Martinborough Vineyard was founded in 1980, when five enthusiasts - Derek Milne, his brother Duncan, Duncan's wife Claire Campbell, Russell Schultz and his wife Sue - planted vines in the deep alluvial gravels. The arrival of Larry McKenna towards the end of 1985 added a winemaker and sixth partner to the venture and began what has become a Martinborough winemaking success story. It is a track record of consistent excellence which most can only marvel at. At a national level, Martinborough Vineyard has won gold medals or better for every Pinot Noir since 1986. In 1989, it won no less than five trophies at one show - for best Muller Thurgau, Riesling,Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Best Wine.
