Reviews

Varietal Pinot Noir- Chardonnay Closure Cork Size 750ml Alc/Vol 12% Enjoy Now - 2010 Chardonnay and pinot noir grapes are sourced from several grower and estate vineyards located within the Wairau Valley in Marlborough. The pale straw colour and aromas of ripe citrus fruits indicate the chardonnay origins of Pelorus NV.

The deliciously crisp palate displays toasty- creamy complexity- enhanced by a lingering nutty finish. What the critics think!
