Lethbridge Pinot Noir 2021
- Grape Pinot Noir
- Country Australia
- Region Geelong
- ABV 13 %
- Case size 6/ 75cl
- Producer Lethbridge
- matured for 10 months in 35% new French oak barriques. A Pinot that attracts first with its aroma of mushroom and earth, enticing with some exotic dark cherry, wet leaves, and a hint of jasmine. Following the scent, there is the anticipation of taste, and if you have chosen well, expect some flavours of dark cherry with undercurrents of earth and spice.

Not surprisingly, the site at Lethbridge was selected based on scientific principles such as soil type, degree days, and other climatic indicators. Yet, after purchasing the property in Lethbridge, they discovered an ancient wooden fermentation vat in one of the old sheds. Further investigation revealed that Swiss vignerons planted the site in the 1870s before the scourge of phylloxera decimated the Geelong wine region. This story is compelling in the connection between traditional wisdom and modern science. After more than 20 years of producing exceptional wine, Lethbridge Wines has achieved a stellar reputation in Australia and internationally, with its wines poured in many of the world's best restaurants. Not resting on their laurels, Ray and Maree have continued experimenting and innovating and have developed several new distinct wine personalities encapsulated under the labels Between Five Bells, il Modo, and Nadeson Collis.

| Winery | Lethbridge Wines is a boutique producer specializing in highly terroir-driven wines from some of the best vineyards in Geelong, chosen after an exhaustive search in the mid-1990s. Owner-winemakers Ray Nadeson and Maree Collis started their careers as research scientists, then completed winemaking degrees before setting up Lethbridge. With the total quantity capped at 3,000 cases, the focus is on quality and individuality, with a strong emphasis on capturing the local terroirs. Lethbridge has built up a cult following in Australia despite being rarely seen outside Melbourne, and we are honoured to get the only overseas allocation. |
