Chardonnay explained: oaked, unoaked, Chablis and sparklingPinot Noir explained: regions, styles, serving and foodGood quality, affordable Pinot Noir is hard to come by, but Vinamar have nailed it! Lovely fresh cherry fruit, super-soft texture and medium body. This is not trying to be Burgundy - it’s simply straightforward, easy drinking, with delicious fruit purity. This is not a bottle to bring out to impress the visiting wine snob, but it will provide a very pleasurable quiet evening in. From the cool climate of the Casablanca Valley, Vinamar wines are crafted by gifted young winemaker, Francesca Perazzo. Dry days and cool nights mean that grapes ripen perfectly and arrive at the winery in pristine condition ready to be transformed into these superbly reliable, good quality wines.

Common questions
What food goes with Pinot Noir?
Roast chicken, duck, salmon, mushrooms and soft cheeses are classic matches. It is lighter than most reds, so it suits dishes that a heavy red would overwhelm.
Is Pinot Noir light or full bodied?
Usually light to medium bodied, with soft tannins. Wines from warmer regions such as California or Central Otago can be riper and fuller than Burgundy.
