Monowai Upper Reaches Hawke’s Bay Pinot Noir 2020 $34.99

Upper Reaches refers to Emma Lowe and her husband Marcelo Nunez’s vineyard. It sits high up on the ancient terraces carved out by the mighty Ngaruroro River in the sub-region of Crownthorpe at the foot of the Kaweka Range. Vanilla-dipped cherry and choco-berry aromas lead to a juicy, ultra-easy, savoury, and peppery palate. Smooth, tamarillo-drenched, and a powerful testament to Emma’s skills, this is a pinot with real pluck and personality. Enjoy with lamb ribs and rhubarb sauce.
