title: Villa Maria 2014 Cellar Selection Pinot Noir (Marlborough)
description: Thoughts of Black Forest cake, cherry chocolate brownies, and baked plums are immediately conjured upon smelling this Pinot Noir from one of New Zealand's largest producers. Violets, dusty books, and cola are in the mix too. The palate promises more of the same, with silky tannins and balanced acidity. It's on the rich side, but is an undeniable crowd pleaser.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Cellar Selection
