Hunter’s<br />

Pinot Noir Rose Marlborough <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong><br />

Simon Nash: Nice lipstick pink, bright, nice nose, dry vinous and nice<br />

balance. Off dry with good juice grip. Long flavour.<br />

Matt Kirby: Some light tones quite lifted aromas, blood orange and<br />

good balance.<br />

Barry Riwai: Closed nose, some reduction. Purely textural palate dry<br />

and lean, but neutral. Reduction gives focus to the palate. Palest pink.<br />

and fresh.<br />
