2008 Matua Valley Marlborough Pinot Noir
February12
Generally, I’ve had some really positive experiences with wines, especially Pinots and Sauvignon Blancs, from New Zealand. I’m a big fan of the kiwis, and I was really intrigued by this wine – according to the label, this winery was the first in NZ to produce Sauvignon Blanc. Unfortunately, I wasn’t impressed by their Pinot Noir. It seemed very acidic and unbalanced… it was just a weird wine.
