Mixed case (3/3) OTQ Sauvignon Blanc & OTQ Pinot Noir, Jules Taylor, New Zealand + FREE DELIVERY

This case includes :

3 x OTQ Sauvignon Blanc, 2021, Marlborough, Jules Taylor

The OTQ Series is a pure expression of Jules’ winemaking skills and her vision to create wines which speak of their place.

Selected bunches of fruit from the Plunkett Vineyard were hand harvested and whole cluster pressed into old oak barrels for wild fermentation and maturation. The resultant wine is a special, very limited showcase of the versatility of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Pale green-gold in colour, this wine is an intriguing fusion of white fleshed peach, elderberry and honeysuckle, perfectly overlayed on nutty caramel notes. Revealing the softer side of its Sauvignon Blanc heritage on the palate, it offers a delicious combination of juicy white fleshed peach and guava beautifully laced with notes of pecan and honey.

3 x OTQ Pinot Noir, 2021, Marlborough, Jules Taylor

The grapes for this Pinot Noir were grown organically and biodynamically on the Wrekin Vineyard which lies in Marlborough’s Brancott Valley.

Violet, poached plum and stewed tamarillo notes overlay darker hints of blackberry and vanilla compote. The nose is completed by lovely smoky, earthy spice and hints of cocoa and cinnamon from the French oak barriques. Generous and juicy on the palate, this Pinot Noir has an elegant structure embracing a beautiful balance of berry fruit and savoury flavours. Smoky oak and firm, spicy tannins leading to a long, dry finish.

This bold pinot noir suits flavoursome meat such as lamb, duck, boar and venison. Mushrooms, beetroot and eggplant compliment well as vegetarian options.Try French lamb rack with beetroot skordalia and black garlic salsa verde.
