Tasting Notes
"Varietal - almost pungent with aromas of fresh raspberry and tart cherries, dark red apple skin and brown baking spices and toasty barrel. Tense, youthful and dry on the palate with flavours that exactly match the nose. Firm, textured tannins, medium ++ acidity, youthful, vibrant, lengthy and dry. A lovely wine, well made and ready."

The Producer
Forrest
Dr John William Forrest was born (1955) and bred in Marlborough, New Zealand. A PhD in Neurophysiology decided to become a wine grower and returned to Marlborough in 1988 to establish Forrest Wines alongside his wife Brigid. Lower alcohol and screw cap pioneer, he is known for pushing the boundaries in New Zealand wine.
Just outside of Renwick, in Marlborough, the Forrest family has been crafting wines since the late 1980’s. Returning to family roots and generations of farming in the Marlborough region seemed a natural progression for John and Brigid Forrest. after successful careers in scientific research and medicine.
Fast forward 30 years; many awards and accolades, various labels and vineyards across the country. Forrest is set for generations.
