Pask Instinct Pinot Noir 750ml

Pask Instinct Pinot Noir offers dense ripe red fruits—cherry, plum, and red berries—layered with subtle oak notes and hints of wild thyme and spice. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety soft tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is long and classic, with lingering red fruit character that fades gracefully.

This Pinot Noir comes from Marlborough, New Zealand, a region renowned for its cool climate winemaking. Produced by the award-winning Pask Winery, it is aged in seasoned French oak barrels and showcases the vibrant, fruit-forward style Marlborough is celebrated for.

This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roasted duck, grilled salmon with fresh herbs, and mushroom risotto. Its balanced acidity and red fruit character also complement charcuterie boards and soft cheeses. The wine's earthy undertones make it versatile with a range of savoury dishes.

Try pairing Pask Instinct Pinot Noir with herb-crusted lamb, pan-seared pork tenderloin, or vegetarian dishes like roasted beetroot and goat cheese salad. The wine's soft tannins and vibrant fruit profile work well with lighter meats and earthy vegetable preparations.

Serve Pask Instinct Pinot Noir lightly chilled at 14–16°C to bring out its aromatic depth and supple mouthfeel. Use a Burgundy-style glass to enhance the wine's bouquet and allow the red fruit and subtle oak notes to shine. No decanting is necessary, though 15 minutes of breathing can open up the aromatics further.
