2015 Jackson Estate Pinot Noir The Somerset Vineyard

12/9/2023 - WilliamMP Likes this wine: 92 points

92+ A staple in the cellar and a benchmark for Marlborough pinot noir. This just seems to be riding a high, consistently.

More meaty than previous bottles. More gruff, aggressive and forward. Iron and tar, dried cranberries, plum skin, subtle stemmy herbs, old leather. Enjoyed at a Christmas party, the perfect match. Note to self - stock up on 2016!

Raspberry and red cherry, hints of herbs and chewy tannins. Complex and a long finish. Memorable

At Iisakki Village, Ruka, Finland (lovely place; I recommend renting the spacy but cozy Iisakin Portti Villa). As for the wine, screw cap, citrus, kiwi, gooseberry, pink grapefruit, nettle and intense herbaceous notes. Medium-bodied, with good concentration, good acidity, and average to short length. A little unpolished, as others noted already, but Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc through and through. Drink now.

Popped and poured at fridge temp from a 375ml bottle. 30 min airing in the glass. Pungent nose of cat pee, herbs and ’decadent’ aromas. Medium bodied, dry, rather pungent, showing nettles, grapefruit and ripe gooseberries with firm acidity. A firm and a bit unpolished Sauvignon Blanc.

Austere flavors except for the dominant green character. Decanting reduced the green flavors, but diminished other flavors as well. Maybe the bottle was off?

From a 375ml bottle. Ripe dark fruit with cassis in the fore and some spicy oak. Medium bodied, smooth and supple, showing good cassis driven ripe dark fruit with spicy notes and firm, smooth tannins. Overall good fruit and balance. A decent poor man’s ”bordeaux”.

Unmistakably NZ, great purity of fruit, bright and fresh but not tart. Perfect ripeness. Quite a pretty style of Pinot, fresh red berries, delicate florals and just a hint of sweet mushrooms and earth.

At this age it is very gentle and tannins are silk. Good balance of fruit and remarkably only a few tertiary notes just appearing.

Deep Garnet colour. Cassis, prunes, black pepper on the nose. Cassis and prunes also dominant in the taste, along with subtler notes of figs, vanilla, strawberries, cocoa and coffee. Highish acid, medium body, medium tannins, dry. Good wine, but slightly overpriced.

Rather vibrant nose of cat pee, black currant and gooseberries. Medium bodied, dry, a bit pungent, showing subtle currant and grapefruit with firm acidity. Not the most expressive of NZ Sauvignon Blancs. Nevertheless solid stuff. Very quaffable.

9/4/2021 - Southern Wine Buff Likes this wine: 87 points

Interesting one this. Nose is not especially Pinot-like,in fact more like a Cab Sav or even Shiraz, with hints of mint and even a little spice. More obviously Pinot Noir on the palate, with very ripe cherry flavours, a still tight structure, and savoury notes on the long, dry finish. A nice wine, but we do wonder if we are drinking it in a dip in its development cycle.

Pale yellow / medium straw colour. Lime and lemon peel on the nose, along with some grassy elements. Citrus elements replicated in the taste, strong green gooseberry and some blackcurrant leaf. Some minerality. Light oiliness in the mouthfeel, which explains only medium-high acidity (malo ferm). Medium-light body. Excellent, balanced and elegant NZ SB.

Zesty lime nose with a little green apple, maybe a little mandarin too; fragrant, grassy and fruity.
Lime and grass flavours, with some white stone fruit. Fruity and floral with some mineral backbone.

Candied orange, blue grape from a home vine, sharp blueberry and typical but richer Marlborough flavours of lychee, gooseberry and passionfruit. A strong citrus finish in overripe Meyer lemon. Very very good.

Bought Majestic UK £17.99 on promo, May 2021.

Drinking very well at 5 yrs old, not as dry as I'd expected it to be - reflecting the reportedly ripe 2016 season in Marlb'? - but, make no mistake, it's no clumsy fruit bomb. There's class here. Alc is 13.5% and if anything is out of balance it is this - and it's not super out-there, just a tad. Nose is seductive and interesting, med+ intensity, some wet forest floor and lovely red fruit, dusty barrels.

Silky mouth-feel, soft ripe fruit with long flavours, super-easy tannins, a tad floury; just enough acidity, a little complexity, some nice leather character, some gentle spice and a savoury/summer Med' herb impression; drinking really well. A bargain for £17.99. It might get better in the cellar, but my next few bottles won't last long.

Good Pinot for 10 years old as I didn’t know what to expect. Decent amount of sweet fruit and roundness on day 1 with full flavours and feel.
More muted on day 2.

93-94 A special wine. At the start of its window - going straight back to get more.

N: Complex cacophony of deep raspberry, dark cherry (not over ripe), nervy green stems and autumn leaves, subtle cured meat, and sweet oak spice.

P: Dark cherry, subtle tart cranberry, plump red currants, to forest floor earthiness, sweet kitchen spice, stems and an almost menthol note. Silky med body, balanced med+ acid and med- tan structure binds everything. Harmony.

F: Summer berries, leaves, toast, fresh menthol.
