Martinborough Vineyard
Marie Zelie Reserve Pinot Noir 2019 750ml

Martinborough Vineyard is proud to present this sixth release of Marie Zelie, a hallmark Pinot Noir epitomising the winery’s pioneering style and impeccable reputation. This finest reflection of Martinborough Vineyard Pinot Noir is extremely limited, with only 1,471 coveted bottles of the 2019 vintage made.

Parcels from two of the oldest parts of the Home Block vineyard were carefully cultivated by Viticulturist Dave Shepherd, hand-picked and pressed. Aged for 13 months in selected French Oak Barriques, the wine was bottled in July 2020 and has spent four years resting in Martinborough Vineyard’s cellar awaiting it’s anticipated release.

The result is an elegant, sophisticated and seamless wine displaying the finest hallmarks of a great Martinborough Pinot Noir; brooding intensity, richness and depth of flavour.

Whilst delicious in its youth, this wine will reward cellaring for many years to come.

Awards & Accolades:
98 Points, James Suckling Tasting Report 2024

"Aromas of dried strawberry, sea shell, lemon peel, and hints of cedar. Hints of salt. Medium to full body. Tannic and so structured with a length and seriousness that is so impressive. Goes on forever. Powerful. Like Musigny. This will age forever.” - James Suckling, 2024
