Overview:
Nautilus Estate Clay Hills Vineyard Pinot Noir is a refined single-vineyard expression from Marlborough’s Southern Valleys. Aromas of pomegranate, blackberry and warm spice lead into a supple palate where fruit sweetness meets savoury depth. Fine-grained tannins and subtle earthiness give shape and length, resulting in an elegant, layered wine with a lingering finish.
Tasting Notes:
The bouquet reveals fragrant notes of pomegranate, ripe blackberries and clove, supported by savoury undertones. The palate is graceful yet generous, balancing sweet red fruits with earthy spice and mineral complexity. Silky tannins frame the wine, leading to a persistent, elegant conclusion.
