Description
As stated on the Helio website: ‘Hawkes Bay is our home, but Pinot Noir prefers a slightly cooler, calmer environment. Luckily for us and our pinosita Sarah, Martinborough is just over the hill from Hawkes Bay, making for a nice drive and the ideal place in New Zealand to grow world class Pinot Noir. The vineyard is located out Lake ferry road. It is said to be the most southern North Island vineyard. The fruit is Abel clone located on a gentle northern slope with heavy clay soils.
Smells
The aromatics are quintessential Martinborough, fresh Doris plum, bramble and dark berries give way to a savoury spiced layer of herbs and dusted crumble ready to be baked’.
Tastes
The fruit profile is matched on the palate with incredibly fine, dusty tannins that give the wine a very Burgundian feel, no doubt from its Able Clone roots. Baked berry slice, Doris plum and a full spectrum of savoury spice make a complete wine. The toasted, spice finish shifts through stages with a consistent texture from those fine dusty tannins that linger for a long time. Drinking well now through 2028 and will pair with duck, pork and other gamey meats. For optimal drinking pleasure, the recommended serving temperature is 13-15 degrees.
