Inviniti Pinot Noir 2024 brings Marlborough pinot noir to the table from a certified sustainable, carbon-zero producer, in a lighter, more immediately drinkable style than the more concentrated pinot noir grown further south, making it an easy entry point into New Zealand pinot noir.

Red cherry and cranberry dominate the nose, fresh and uncomplicated, with a light herbal lift and a faint floral note. The palate is juicy and bright, red fruit carrying through with minimal tannin getting in the way, staying lively from first sip to last, with real drinkability throughout.

Tannins are soft and fine, acidity fresh, and the finish is quick and clean rather than lingering — an easy-drinking style by design, built for enjoyment over analysis.

Serve it lightly chilled with charcuterie, salmon, or a simple roast chicken, where its freshness and light body both suit the food well without ever overwhelming it, an easy match for a relaxed midweek dinner.

Drink this one over the next one to two years while the fruit is fresh and vivid.
