Alana Estate Freedom Marlborough Pinot Noir 2020 $22
Bold and spice-soaked, this pinot has freshness, feistiness, friskiness and a spine of spice. Rhubarb, baked cherry and buckets of earthy complexity make this a pinot that brings the grins with every sip. Savoury, earthy, edged with dried herbs and leather, it’s a comforting sip.
The Alana Estate whanau are hellbent on fighting against modern slavery in India, so they developed this line of wine under the ‘Freedom’ moniker to help them do just that with $3 from every bottle sold going to their partners Joyya and The Loyal Workshop to support their work employing women and girls who’ve been sold or stolen, freeing them from a life of oppression.
