The New Pinot Noir, Fit for Carrie Bradshaw

Invivo is proud to announce the newest addition to its five-year partnership with Sarah Jessica Parker: Invivo X, SJP Pinot Noir 2022 . Invivo X, SJP Pinot Noir 2022 is the third release–and the first red wine–in the award-winning collection from Sarah Jessica Parker & Invivo co-founders Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron. Considered one of New Zealand’s most innovative wineries, Invivo also produces Invivo X, SJP French Rosé, and Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, the fastest-growing super-premium Sauvignon Blanc in the United States.

“ It's been a joy to collaborate with Rob and Tim to create this beautiful Pinot Noir from New Zealand. It has lovely berry and chocolate flavors, and you can't believe the smell. This blend has so much structure and depth, as do all of our wines, and I especially love chilling this one for 30 minutes before pouring a glass. It’s really exciting to be able to share this with our loyal customers, and we’re eager to hear what they think .” says Sarah Jessica Parker, Actor, Producer, and Partner of Invivo X, SJP.

Invivo X, SJP Pinot Noir is sourced from the finest parcels in Marlborough's cool southern valleys with a dash of Awatere River drama to add depth and complexity. Personally tasted and blended by Sarah Jessica alongside Invivo Cofounders Tim and Rob, Invivo X, SJP Pinot Noir has a bright garnet red hue with pronounced aromas of dark cherry, leather, and baking spices. On the palate, sweet plum, cherry, and hints of toasty oak flavors are balanced by fine tannins and a fresh acidity. The journey of crafting this exceptional New Zealand Pinot Noir began with hand-harvested fruit, delicately de-stemmed and left to cold-soak before fermenting naturally with indigenous yeasts. The wine then spent eleven months in French oak barrels.

" We're excited to introduce the Invivo X, SJP Pinot Noir 2022, our latest chapter with Sarah Jessica Parker ," says Rob Cameron, Co-founder of Invivo & Co. " Although predominantly from Marlborough, we couldn't resist blending in a small amount of Pinot Noir fruit from Central Otago in New Zealand to add more structure. The result is a wine that beautifully balances Marlborough's bright, fruit-forward flavors with the earthy, nuanced tones of Central Otago—a true reflection of Sarah Jessica's adventurous spirit ."

“ Sarah Jessica's confidence at the blending table has grown so much over the past five years, and it’s been an inspiration for all of us ," says Tim Lightbourne, Co-founder of Invivo & Co. "We were eager to add red wine to our range and were delighted to introduce Sarah Jessica to the fresh and exceptional character of New Zealand Pinot Noir. Together, we've created a stylish red that captures the essence of our cool climate and the unforgettable personality behind our wines.”
