Coming to LCBO on April 13th, Staete Landt State of Grace Pinot Noir from the Rapaura & Brancott sub appellations of Marlborough, NZ. Light ruby, the nose shows cherry, plum, herbs, rose petals, earthy notes, and minerality.  The palate reveals the refreshing tart fruit, fine grained tannins, and harmonious balance.  A serious Pinot with its impressive structure and complexity, a fantastic expression of this top of the line State of Grace label Pinot.   Enjoy over the next five years with grilled lamb or pork tenderloin.  Tasted April 2024.  93 points.  Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca
