The 2022 Terroir Project Marlborough Pinot Noir totally overdelivers on quality, taste and above all, value. Full of bright, juicy red fruits, a plush but savoury palate and complex tertiary aromas from its time on oak all present as a delicious wine with tremendous balance, complexity and carry.

Terroir Project ("Tear-wah Pro-ject") is a new project of single-vineyard wines showcasing unique terroirs from around New Zealand and Australia. The wines are incredible translations of vineyard site and soil, and for the technically minded among us, the back labels offer all of the following information on each wine too.
