Jawbone is a Marlborough winery producing Pinot Noir in New Zealand's South Island. The region's cool climate and distinctive terroir—marked by long sunny days and cool nights—create ideal conditions for the variety. Marlborough's gravelly soils and maritime influence shape wines of precision and balance. The Reserve Selection Pinot Noir demonstrates the winery's focus on the varietal, earning recognition from Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator. Pinot Noir from this region typically expresses bright red fruit, silky tannins, and the mineral character that defines South Island expressions of the grape.
