Private Bin Pinot Noir - Villa Maria

Villa Maria's light-bodied Private Bin Pinot Noir flows into the glass with a brilliant light red color. To the nose, this Villa Maria red wine presents all sorts of mulberries, black cherries, blackberries, morello cherries and black currants. As if that were not already impressive, the aging in small wooden barrels adds other aromas such as cinnamon, gingerbread spice and oriental spices.

On the palate, Villa Maria's Private Bin Pinot Noir opens pleasantly aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. On the tongue, this light-bodied red wine is characterized by an immensely velvety texture. The final of this youthful red wine from the wine-growing region of New Zealand South Island, more precisely from Marlborough, finally thrilled with considerable reverberation. The finish is also accompanied by mineral hints of the gravel-dominated soils.

Vinification of the Private Bin Pinot Noir from Villa Maria

This elegant red wine from New Zealand is vinified from the Pinot Noir grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions on New Zealand's South Island. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of gravel. After manual harvesting, the grapes reach the winery by the fastest route. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in small wood at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the Private Bin Pinot Noir is aged for another 9 months in French oak barriques.
