Ashleigh Barrowman (Siren Wines) - High Priestess 2022

(Marlborough, NZ)

A light, juicy and delicate New World 100% Pinot Noir. Ashleigh's style of winemaking leans away from heavy extractions, so despite the high tone fruitiness of this wine, full of blueberry, cherry and cassis, it's never overpowering. The silky texture, and hit of umami spice on the finish make this an absolute joy to drink, down to the last drop. 

Ashleigh Barrowman is part of the exciting new wave of small producers who are reinventing the Marlborough appellation. These are intelligent, soulfully crafted wines that reshape the perception of the region, informed by her years working with some of the world's very best winemakers. She works only with fruit from the Wrekin vineyard, where she is part of the vineyard team, farming the 11ha using organic and biodynamic practices.
