Sanguine in color with touches of the same on the nose, this 2014 Pinot, from all three of Seresin’s former vineyards, has aged with grace and poise. It leads with notes of wild strawberry, cherry, flower stalks and peppery, herbaceous characters, along with a slightly meaty tone. There’s a delicious crunch on the palate, tangy, still-bright red fruit at its heels and fine tannins offering a helping hand. Drink up—this delicate creature is peaking now. The Sorting Table.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Pale to medium ruby colored, the 2013 Rachel Pinot Noir has an earthy nose of loam, moss-covered bark and garrigue with a core of raspberry leaves, red currants and wild thyme. The medium-bodied palate offers intense red berry and earth flavors with a solid backbone of grainy tannins and lively acid, finishing with great length.

Seresin Estate, located in Marlborough, New Zealand, was founded by Michael Seresin in 1992, and is one of the country’s first organic and biodynamic wine producers.
Tucked away in the folds of the Southern Valleys sub region, Seresin’s single estate vines hail from the clay & alluvial soils of the Raupo Creek Vineyard.
Certified BioGro organic and biodynamically farmed, all grapes are hand-picked. Wild yeast fermentation along with minimal intervention in the winery produces wonderful, unique and complex wines.
These resulting wines capture the essence of the vineyard’s energy and vibrancy, making every bottle of Seresin a genuine reflection of its provenance.
Seresin, Wine of Passion, Grace & Spirit.
